Just buy the big bottle, that'll be enough!

As much fluid as it takes to get all the bubbles out, the slave will be done at the same time no matter how you change your clutch fluid by the way. Any brake fluid will do as clutch fluid, nothing fancy scene as it doesn't cop heat and whatnot like brakes do.
its also a manual car
Hehe you'd have a tough time bleeding the clutch if it wasn't....sorry had to say it :P

Alex Frost: thats all that was stoping me but I have 2 spend lots more on the front I have 2 replace breakpads and machine the rotors, the struts and coils springs and to top it off I have to do the (Strut Bush's to Chassi,Sway Bar Link Rubbers,Sway Bar Mount Rubbers), but my car did ok have a look at my street raceing story.

Yea, I put a new slave in my car as well as a rebuild and swap of the master cylinder. And so far on my car, I have done 4 tires, all 4 brakes, the aforementioned clutch items, the clutch, timing belt, MkII fiberglass spoiler, and 280ZX Shifter. I will be putting on a T2 turbo with a larger compressor housing and wheel, Bart's full FMIC kit, Tokico shocks/ struts, and ST lowering springs. I thinks that it for now.
