How much brake fluid for the change?

My G37's are both 2010 xS --AWD.

How much brake fluid do our cars need for replacement? I'm buying Amsoil since Royal Purple and Redline don't make any yet.

I've been trying to source the info. but no luck on my own.

If you are changing the break fluid I would replace it all, but if your changing your pads you just have to top it off if I'm not mistaken.

To completely bleed the brake system and all lines, I recommend having at least two quarts on hand. The first quart will go quickly and you'll need a bit from the second to ensure all-new brake fluid from front to rear.

Back for more.

I added Royal Purple to my differentials/gears for one of my G37's btw and it actually gave the car more get-up ..not sure more power but it felt stronger.

I'm thinking of putting in Royal Purple for brake fluid on my G37 with 110k miles. Anyone tried Royal Purple for their brake fluid?
