My SPG had this stuff called "Super Blue Racing Brake Fluid" in it when I removed the engine... now that I'm FINALLY putting it back in, I'm wondering whether or not to use the same stuff again, or stick with regular DOT-4 fluid. The Super Blue says it is DOT-4 and 5.1 compliant, and it's supposed to shed heat faster, or boil at a higher temp or something, which reduces brake fade. I'm not exactly racing around abusing my brakes all the time, so it seems kind of unnecessary- but I have a full can of it sitting in the trunk, which should be enough to fill the system (I think). Is there any reason I shouldn't use this stuff?

From my experiance in the field of servicing European cars hydraulic systems I would continue using the ATE SuperBlue Brake fluid , I have been servicing all the BMW's, Mercedes, Audi's and Porsches at my workplace using this brake fluid exclusively for hydraulic repairs the one time I was not able to get it I paid the price on an '88 M3 Brake master cylinder a couple of days later!!! I also personally use this fluid in all my vehicles with noticeable improvement in braking under harsh conditions!

Hmm.. it sounds like this is good stuff then, so it looks like I'll be using it. Thanks guys!
