Clutch fluid and brake fluid - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

secondchance · 10-26-2015

From quick research, it seems clutch fluid is basically DOT 3 or DOT 4 fluid. I was just curious what other ZR-1 guys are running in their cars. GM Hydraulic fluid? DOT 3, 4, 5 or 5.1?

Same question with brake fluid. DOT 3? 4? 5.1? Seems some European brands are offering 5.1 which are silicone based and yet ABS friendly.

Opinions?
