Time for some new brake stuff. I will be tracking the car a couple of times this summer and probably plenty of spirited driving : ). Which fluid would be best? I am leaning towards Motul RBF600.

Thanks

keep in mind that the 600 will need to be flushed at least once per year. It also tends to pickup moisture faster than others, but that's usually not an issue if you bleed all of the time for track events.

Mr. Mom

at 2/quart or similar.


Don't get me wrong Motul is good stuff, just a bit more $$$ and I believe Pentosin racing has better numbers.


I just ordered 2 litres for this summer

I just bled mine out after a little under a year of use in the car. As long as you're willing to do that in exchange for a better BP, go for it.

The 5.1 is better than a DOT3 , however is NOT better than the the 4. The RBF600 has higher boiling points. A tec at a motorcycle shop told me the 5.1 is good to use on machinery that tend to sit a lot...Snowmobiles/Non sport bikes/Dirt bikes....etc. It does an excellent job of keeping moisture out.

here a nice breakdown of brake fluids of wet/dry boiling points:<ul><li><a href="http://www.evilplastic.com/bfluid.htm">http://www.evilplastic.com/bfluid.htm</a</li></ul>

Mr. Mom

I flush after each track session and 1x per year regardless.


Now if I only could get around to installing my speed bleeders

ski ya later

I have for years now and very happy with it on both track and street.
