Well put it this way, the wet boiling point of Castrol SRF is within a few degrees of the dry boiling point of the above.......

To me it is worth it for piece of mind and the prevention of turtle head moments ![]() ![]() I also don't like EBC pads (having had bad experiences of them years ago), but they may have improved since then. I don't think they belong on a car of this value ![]()

I have had that moment myself years ago in my old E46 M3, pedal to the floor due to boiled fluid, nearly crashed, I absolutely cacked my pants, honestly thought I was a goner. SRF is by far the most consistent, I've used it in all my cars for years, ideally it needs changing every year to keep it at it's best. EBC pads are shocking, they melt, I had a set of rear EBC yellow in my old i8, I managed to melt them after 1 track session at Bedford, I can't even sell them for £5 on eBay as no one will bid, not much better compound than a OEM pad imo. |

I re-did my brakes on the weekend as i've just changed my calipers again to something else ![]() Make sure you wd40 your bleed nipples (ooer) the night before, as they are notorious for siezing up. ![]() |

![]() Its plenty fine, sure castrol SRF has a higher boiling point.. but you need to change it annualy compared to the ATE which is fine with 2-3 years. Also the boiling points are rather close. # ATE Super Blue Racing: 280°C # Castrol SRF Racing: 303°C I've been using ATE for a few years now with pagid pads and i never had issues. Only that the paint on my calipers have become gold ![]() ![]()
