Turbo MP3 #222, 00 Silverado Z71
I am getting performance rotors, pads and SS lines this week. I need to know what type of fluid to get. Price isnt really that important, i just want the best for my car.
Also how many quarts will i need?
 
Agreed on the Motul. Good stuff. One of the best brake fluids you can use on the street and still be worthy on the track.
 
find a motorcycle performance shop (ie, NOT good ol' americun harley davidson shop) that deals with ducattis, suzukis, yamahas, etc

What kind of brakes you decide on Paul?

I was planning on the ION because i like the crossdrilled look, but today i was told to stay away from all cross drilled rotors.. so i am still deciding. I need to order the soon.



Ion and ARD both offer slotted for the same price, i just need to find out which is better KVR or Rotora....

Any help here guys???
 
I am a little impartial to the ARD's, but ION looks to have a good product. KVR is more notable than rotora but thats just a name. I think either will do.

ATE Super Blue

I've only heard good things about the Motul but I use ATE Super Blue Racing brake fluid. I used it on my ITS RX-7 and just put it in my wife's Maxima when I installed new rotors and Porterfield pads and this setup TRANSFORMED the car. Nice firm pedal. Very responsive. Stop on a dime. Awesome! And I like that it's blue so you can tell when you've flushed out all the old fluid. They even sell a gold version for when you're flushing out the blue stuff. About $10 a can at:

Full flush of Maxima didn't even use 1 can but buy an extra to be safe. I just bought the Protege but will plan to put it in next chance I get.
