- Motul RB 600
- Motul RB 660
- Castrol SRF
I'm leaning towards the Brembo HTC 64T as I've read good things but I'm worried why does it say not for street use and also don't use if yiu have magnesium parts. Also they never post specs but I believe they are the only fluid used by F1.
- As for the Motul read it needs to be changed very frequently snice it absorbs moisture quickly.
- ATE read great things but also read only good for street.
- Castrol SRF read great things but also it's over rated for the price.
I'm open to suggestions

The Brembo fluid says that about magnesium because it has a corrosive effect on that material outside DOT/SAE standards.
The Endless fluid is also used in F1.
Castrol SRF, Endless RF-650 and Ferodo Super Formula - cant go wrong with those for a racing fluid applicable to modern track cars. The Brembo fluid is good, but I wouldn’t use it unless I knew what was possibly magnesium in the brake system; however there are options just as good without the worry. Next up I’d say AP R3, Motul 600/660, StopTech 600/660 and Redline RL-600.
