Brake upgrades... fluid?
 

Ok guys i recently installed aem brake pads in the accord and theyre way better than stock, but do any of you run special brake fluid? Im thinking about changing mine because its prolly the same shizz that came with the car (ugh...1988)

No need to run special brake fluid. If you're thinking about upgrading to DOT 10 silicone stuff then you would have to change your hoses and other ---- too. El cheapo DOT 3 is where it's at.

Earls makes some high temp/racing ---- that we put in the cop cars for highway partrol.

reading is fun. let's all read together.



I put nothing but dot99 in the hatch, oh wait, I've never done ---- with the brakes except change the pads once, and now I get squeaking from all 4 corners, ---- the rear drums, I have some disks to put in, I just need to buy the brake lines, rotors, and pads.

i use ultra lube carbon fiber brake fluid, i get it at walmart next to the APC stuff. =D

Kyle, just squirt some 3 in 1 oil on the rotors and in the drums before you go driving, that will stop the squeaking ;)

Don't take my word for it but I heard you can go to ford and ask for fluid for a big truck like a f350. I heard it's still dot3 but it will take higher temps and mix with regular stuff.
