on a mates 86.. used on the circut a bit.. has Hawk HP Plus pads on the front.. with ADM rotors and calipers.. the pads themselves don't fade.. but what is happening is the fluid (dot 3/4) goes to shit.. like the pedal goes to the floor after 3-4, 5 lap sprint sessions.. once the fluid is flushed and replaced the pedal is normal...

the brake fluid were using is toyota genuine dot 3, but have tried some dot 4 also.. only reason i use the toyota dot 3 is because i have a full box of 500ml bottles.. like a dozen of them..

would DOT 5 fluid be ok to use in this if it was flushed through and replaced?? it has new brake lines through out.. and master cyl and wheel cyls are not leaking etc.. all have been reced recently etc..

opinions... it's definitly the fluid going to crap the car can sit for days after a race meeting and the pdeal will still feel the same shitty half dow to the floor.. but once replaced it's perfect..
