Default R35 special dot4 brake fluid

I was wondering if anyone has experience with this brake fluid, also how it would compare to motul rbf600. I am about to do my brakes so I really want good quality pads and fluid since the car does get rallied and pushed pretty hard. Has anyone tried stoptech pads also? I want a street/track mix pad, and yes I know its better to run two different pads but i cant do that everyday!

Hey,

not sure about the one you're looking for, but if you're looking for something better than rbf600 I have this instock:

Project Mu G-Four 335 Brake Fluid (1L)

and stoptech is good, have run stoptech pads personally before and had no issues with them

It's a high-temp DOT 4 fluid. GT-R guys that typically want better performance will also upgrade beyond this fluid. If you want something really good for the track, just skip to Motul RBF600 or if you're really going to beat on the car, Endless RF650.

its pretty good ive never had it really boil or anything.... although i had a track session this summer where it was the first time i had been to a road course in over a year ( had only been autoXing) so i carried over my habit of autoX trailbraking my first session and when i got off the track my pedal was really soft and went to the floor...let it set for about 20 mins and it was fine all day...so never had complaints with it but if i had the choice from the start....i would go motul....i just use the OEM because i already have it lol
