Changing Brake fluid...

I need to flush oem brake fluid and replace it with Motul RBF600. I thought I had several bottles around but I only have one. Is that going to be enough for the 2006 WRX?
On my previous car I had upgraded brakes so I flushed the fluid more than a year ago... I do not recall how much is needed.

Thanks.

I don't have the braking system capacity specs for the '06 model but the '02 needs at least two 500ml bottles. I would have three bottles of the stuff on hand just to make sure you don't run out in the middle of the job.

Thanks. I figured so I did not even start bleeding the brakes. I am going to have to find somebody who has couple of bottles around so I can use them today since I have a track day tomorrow.
BTW, changing the pads on the Subaru 4-pots is a 45-min job. Easy.
