Brake Fluid Review & Analysis

I have nothing but good things to say about Endless RF650, especially the pedal feel.

Endless and Brembo fluid are the only fluids used in F1. Interesting.

I've noticed a little spongy pedal with SRF too, but it has a much better ability to operate with a little moisture, meaning it will last longer in daily use than the others.

Overall, I believe that if you want a daily-drivable car that rocks on the track, SRF is the current answer with 1-2 year changes.

If low compressibility is what you're after, look at ProSpeed RS683 Xtreme (I believe it was rebranded as Torque RT700).

The Torque 700 gave me the firmest pedal I'd ever had in the E46M3. I never used it on the E90M3.

Yep, though I found it didn't last long. I switched to SRF for the "flush it once a year" thing and never looked back. I don't have the time or space to be changing fluid every track day.

I'm of the same mind; I use SRF in the E90M3. E46M3 was sold prior to me moving out east.
