    Where do you get the ATE Blue. Order it from Europe?

    I never noticed any difference on the street with stock to Motul 660 to SRF...but on the track as the brakes got hotter the SRF felt more spongy to me. I went back to Motul 660 for the next weekend and spongy feel was gone. My other track buddies use SRF and deal with it, other like me don’t like the feel, other use Endless which seems to never get spongy.
    I use to use Prospeed683 and loved it. Now it rebranded I believe as Torque RT600 but even that has been odd to get and I’m unsure of it these days.

    That is what I am using now. Motul. Add dye to fluid to help with knowing the new fluid flush is complete. Used the ATE Blue for years in my race cars that were routinely flushed on race weekends. Not so important on street car but fun to see the fluid turn blue, or clear, when coming out of the calipers. No doubt about getting fresh fluid in the calipers. I use a Motive Pressure bleeder. As others have said, it will turn the reservoir blue and some object to that.
