ATE super blue and a can of gold for the next change (color changes when you've flushed all the old out)

^^ I found it easily a couple of years ago.

It has been surpassed in performance now, although it's still great for the money. I ran it in the C5Z.


In a G37, unless I planned to track it, I'd run any old DOT-whatever it specs. I wouldn't spend the money on high dollar brake fluid. It's unnecessary for a car driven strictly on public roads.

Quote :
"Effective immediately, and until further notice, all distribution of ATE Super Blue Racing DOT 4 Brake Fluid will end in the United States due to non compliance with applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard for brake fluid. The federal standard requires motor vehicle brake fluid to be colorless or amber in color.

The specific color requirement for brake fluid in the standard is to permit easy differentiation of brake fluids from other types of motor vehicle fluids before they are placed in the vehicle. If an incompatible fluid is put into a motor vehicle system, it could lead to damage or failure of that system."


news to me

I really liked ATE Super Blue, but I love Motul Racing. As a bonus, Motul isn't hard to find.

You can still get ATE Type 200 (Amber) fluid, which is the same thing as Super Blue but yellow obviously. That's what I've been running in my two track cars.

I haven't tried the Motul stuff, might have to take a look.
