Hello all.
I have a 1994 LS Coupe, and I have new Brembo blank rotors, Goodridge Stainless steel braided lines. I am getting ready to place my order for Hawk HPS pads, and some better brake fluid. I'm thinking of going with ATE Type 200 Gold, but if anyone has any recommendations, let me know. The car is almost 100% driven on the street, i'm just looking to upgrade for more 'enthusiast' driving.
How much brake fluid should I order to completely flush and fill the system? If you dont recommend the ATE Fluid, what fluid should I get for everyday driving? I am ordering from Cobalt Friction, if that helps on brand selection. Thanks.

You shouldn't need more than 2 large bottle of brake fluid. If your car is going to be street driven, I'd recommend Valvoline Synthetic Dot 3/4 brake fluid. It's relatively inexpensive and has good wet & dry boiling points.

I looked into the fluid, pretty cheap at $5/litre... thats probably what i'll go with, anybody else?
i use valvoline synthetic and i flushed/bled all calipers and the braking power seems better, but i would get a new master cylinder if its old, im gonna get one and new ss brake lines
