The stock fluid is DOT3 and a very average one at that. I changed to Motul DOT 5.1 and even that made some big differences compared to the stock stuff. Definitely change it out if you are heading to a track.

I am currently using Motul RBF 600, but if you track enough, Castrol SRF might make more sense to you. It will cost you a shiny penny, but the highest known wet boiling point for any brake fluid on the market right now means you can run the same stuff probably for the entire season without worrying about fade. Can save you time and money when you have to change other fluids more often. From what I have seen, SRF costs twice as much as the RBF 600, so if you have to change RBF 600 once mid-season, you are better off with the SRF and save yourself time.

With a V6 1LE, I think RBF 600 is good. RBF 660 isn't really worth it IMO.
