Default Any tips for installing new brakes/rotors???

I'm going to be installing a new set of eradispeeds and green stuff EBC pads.......

I read install university's write-up, and am wondering what if there is anything else I should know. Do I need to replace my brake fluid??? Any other tips for the cycling process???

Any things I should make sure I DON'T do???

that install doc pretty much wraps it up

flush, fill and bleed the brake fluid is always nice... it makes a huge difference in pedal feel..

when you push the pistons back into the calipers, brake fluid will run out of the master cylinder

I just changed my pads and rotors yesterday, following that write up. Everthing went exactly as stated. I just pushed the pistons in slowly and no fluid came out the resivore(sp)
