Ended up being an old thread that got bumped by a spammer (I wish I knew why they bump super old threads just makes their presence an even bigger annoyance)
Anyway this brings up an interesting point. I don't know if this is a difference between s4/s5 or vented/non vented rear calipers but I know mine have two bleeders on each caliper.

Some calipers are "flip flops" which means it will work on either side. The reason for 2 bleeders is because no matter what side the caliper is on the bleeder HAS to point up in order to bleed the brakes. My guess is that is not a Mazda caliper but an aftermarket remake.. could be wrong..
Vented and solid rear brakes have different calipers in the back.
turbo is always vented rear brakes
GXL (lsd cars) I think all have vented rear brakes
S4/S5 calipers are the same as long as u use vented or solid depending on your car/build

you might be right i am pretty positive the calipers are stock and somebody had a debate elsewhere on this i dont know what the outcome was. I believe though you cant swap the calipers from side to side since the ebrake line wont hook up and i would have to look again but i dont believe the bleeder screws are in the same place. Ohh well just another interesting mystery.
