    How many of you swap out your RBF600 brake fluid every year.

    Deciding on some minor brake upgrades (hopefully a full BBK again one day) for some track days this year.
    I have some SS lines to install but the rest is stock.
    I've only had the car a short while so the brake fluid needs to be completely flushed out.

    Thinking of Motul RBF600 or Endless RF650 but don't really want to swap it out every season as many people have indicated is necessary for that type of fluid.

    Either that or just go with Motul 5.1 and be done with it.

    So on stock brakes, who's running what and for how long?

    Thanks

    I'm running stock brakes/rotors with SS lines and RBF600. Don't plan to flush it every season unless the brake feel changes significantly.

    With RBF600 I would flush every year. This fluid is more susceptible to water and should require much shorter service intervals. can never be too safe, especially if you are doing it yourself. 5.1 should be done usually every 2 years.

    I have Endless RF650 and based on what some PCA tech inspection mechanics have told me, theres no reason to flush as often as people on forums claim.

    Theres people flushing after every event and yet I'm being told I can go entire seasons if not more.

    I flush once per year regardless with RBF600. I've also have gotten good feedback on Torque brake fluid, has anyone tried it here?
