I need to swap my 97 stock ITR Fluid out for a track day, but am not sure what kind (motol, but I am not sure which #).

I am signed off to run solo, so I am going to be beating the car a little, so I need something that won't boil so quickly.

thanks...Scot

 

Scot, go with either Motul 600 or ATE Super Blue. Motul has a higher boiling point, but it needs to be bled more often and you only get .5L for about the same price as 1L of the ATE.

yoshi - who just changed to Motul600 yes'day

 

Motul 600 is now called Motul RBF 600. Still great stuff, with a dry boiling point of 312°c / 593°F and a wet boiling point of 216°c / 420°F.

I would go with ATE. It comes in two different colors making it easier to flush your brake system when you need to; plus you get double the amount for the same price as Motul.

Boiling points on ATE are dry, 536 degrees F. and wet, 392 degrees F.

 

At $10 a bottle for the RBF 600, I'm more than happy to pay an extra $10 for Motul RBF 600 for my annual flush. What I get by paying that huge difference is boiling points that (as you can see) are much higher than the ATE. The added protection against boilover makes RBF 600 a real bargain!

 

I'll say it again, I've heard Motul is great. DC Sports used it on the Type R's in the Speedvision Touring Car races.

OK -----> next stupid question -----> where do i get a couple of bottles of Motol 600?

thanks for the help so far! If someone can come to my house to actually change the fluid too, i would appreciate it. :D j/k

yoshi pointed out to me that most motorcycle shops carry plenty..thanks yoshi!

 

Anybody know how many much the brake system needs?

 

2-3 Bottles of Motul for a flush.

 

You shouldn't need more than two bottles (half liter each).
