Can I change from DOT 3 to DOT 4 without changing parts?
Hey Gang,
I'm getting my 99 FRC ready for the track and am looking to change over to ATE Super DOT 4 Blue/Gold. Can I simply flush with the new fluid, or do I need to change parts. My understanding is that the two fluids are compatible.
Sorry for the newb question, but I've not been able to find a difinitive answer - although I'm sure it's out there somewhere...

It's okay to mix but doing a good flush would be best. I think quite a bit always stays around the ABS pump so don't get to **** about it.

Yep, you can mix it no problem. Go ahead and flush the system the best you can including siphoning out the master cylinder.

Copy that - thanks for the confirmation.
I've got a Motive Products power bleeder and a set of speedbleeders that should aid the procedure. I'm loading a fresh set of Hawk HP+ pads all around at the same time. Should be good to go!
