hey...i'm gonna get my newly painted calipers and goodridge ss brake lines installed next week and since i have close to 10k on the car, i figured i'd not only have the brake fluid bled, but just replaced completely.....what's in an 04-05 stock and what brand and type should i get....thanks in advance

 

i used valvoline dot3/4 synpower

 

what other brands are out there??..i know of motul

 

I use Motul.

Strongly recommend you go to the Under the Hood forum and look for the oil journals thread, midnight.

 

I am currently using the valvoline dot3/4 synpower as well, but I am switching to the Motul

 

im switching to ate super blue next change

 

I use honda oem brake fluid.

 

I use ATE super blue always good pedal feel.

 

If you track and are willing to change the fluid at least every 2 years, I like Ate Blue/Gold alternately.

The best DOT3 fluid I know of is Motorcraft Super Premium from Ford.

I am amused by Valvoline Synpower - all brake fluids are synthetic as they are glycolic in origin. It is an OK fluid though - just marketing hype trying to make hay over its name.

 

rnaks for all the responses....it is greatly appreciated
