Brake Fluid
Recently realized I am very much in need of a brake and clutch fluid change but I'm not sure what I should go with. I have a 2001 pro-charged Z06 and I don't track the car but I would like to have a high boiling point brake fluid for when I'm feeling a little risky on public roads, any ideas on what I should go with?

The higher boiling point Dot 4 fluid is compatible with Dot 3 so you don't have to worry about mixing and it's only a couple bucks more. I've also used the ATE typ 200 that jim993 mentioned above, it's good stuff for cheap

This is what I run in my A&A supercharged '04. I combined this with a Hawk HPS 5.0 pad, and it handles the heat very well.
