    Brake Fluid Recommendation

    Hey, Went to a track day today
    all went great cept I got a rele spongy pedal afterwards, we came to conclusion that fluid boiled and hence creating air bubbles

    Anyway i was using Castrol SuperDot 4, what you guys recommened.

    oem or castrol super dot 4

    not worth going dot 5 because after ur track day the fluid will be the same quallity as dot 3 or 4. You could upgrade ur brake lines to stainless steel, apparently that helps prevent the brakes lines swelling causing spongy feel. Also ur brake pads can fade and case bad brake feel.

    Don't use DOT 4 or OEM crap. Get some NEO Racing 660, or RBF600. Both are good, the 660 is much much better, and is designed for Formula 3, and formula 1 cars. It's just as good as AP 660 fluid.

    sry forgot to mention im running, braided lines and i use brand new pads for today, dont think it was my pads as it cud break rele well, basicily while waiting for the next sessions i noticed that it was rele spongey and cud pretty much be pressed down, like air had entered lines, im running braided lines so cudnt be expansion of that, and pads wud of cooled by then, and where runnin fine on track few metres later. So came to conclusion was the fluid which had boiled, mind you i wasnt braking that hard, it was a fun day so i was being pretty easy on it.
    Thanks VTECMACHINE i shall try those outs
