it is not about when the oem fluid works. Is about the onlymtime it doesn't.
totally. i have the car inspected after every track day including measuring water content in the fluid so I take it day by day. The OEM fluid is Dot4 so I feel safe, but will go with the Motul600 when it's time to change.
 
Please dont put the st-43’s on with girodiscs. I had them and they sucked. Get Pagids. Quiet, much much much less brake dust and much much better

why did they suck? Most folks say they last a long time and perform admirably on track. I also considered the G-Loc and Ferodo pads but I don’t remember the compounds I settled on off hand. Pagid pads are great, but they are also the most expensive option so I was going to try other stuff before going there. I can always fall back to those.

Im going to say the pagids out perform the st-43’s hands down. I ran them one session, they were so goddamn noisy and brake dust was worse than stock. I put pagids on and i was braking much later with leas noise, brake dust

Good to know. I don’t think there’s any doubt the Pagid’s are better, that’s why they cost the most. But like I said I was hoping to find a happy place with either Ferodo, G-Loc or Raybestos. If that doesn’t work out, P-town here I come.

you’re literally putting the most expensive rotors on your car, wouldnt you want some of the best pads? I paid $500 and they will last 2 seasons. Just my 2 cents.
