RT700 Brake Fluid

So just got my shipment of RT700.

Thanks @CSG Mike ! I will be putting this in in the next couple weeks and get a review up. Probably try a staged approach. First just a bleed and this fluid. Then add some new stoptech pads i got, then after add some brakelines, or vice/ver

!

Looking forward to your feedback!

We're still working with Torque to get them end user feedback, so please tell us everything, including the thing you DON'T like.

You can save your precious brake fluid by swapping out the lines first.

True...That actually might be a better route. Put on the lines first. Test with stock fluid....

Then flush with new RT700.

I would prefer to drain/flush and put new lines on all at once, but then the feedback would be skewed as the lines will most likely influence the feel of the new fluid, and will be hard to differentiate.

So a bit slower process, but will have a bit better results....

Now to find some lines...and possibly speed bleeders.

I got my front and rear Spiegler lines from @CounterSpace Garage. I'm currently running RBF600, but will probably switch to RT700 when I get the AP Racing sprint brake kit. Nice build you have going there!
