Has anyone used the PBR RBF 600 Fluid?

I'm about to go pick some up. Are they manufacturing it themselves or re-bottling the motul stuff?

http://www.pbrperformance.com.au/RacingBrakeFluid.htm

PBR RBF 600 593°F dry boiling point. (cant find specs on wet point) It's at my local repco for $42 per bottle.

AP SUPER 600 590°F 410°F

CASTROL SRF 590°F 518°F

NEO SUPER DOT 610 610°F 421°F $

MOTUL RACING 600 593°F 420°F

MOTUL DOT 5.1 509°F 365°F

ATE SUPER BLUE 536°F 392°F

VALVOLINE SYNPOWER 503°F

ATE SL 500°F 329°F

CASTROL LMA 450°F 311°F

AP 551 528°F 288°F

Also noticed a new(?) Penrite Product?

Penrite SIN Brake Fluid 600 - 590°F 388°F - and is much cheaper - I think $14 per bottle.

The BP for the project mu is 335C dry.

The highest I've seen. I hope it works as they claimed.

You might be right with the Motul at QR Mike. We did not have any where to cool the car down at Lakeside and my AP setup did not like it.

I've done too many days on teh current fluid and need a change before tuesday, and I have no-where to go to pick anything up being Sunday. lol

All I can find at local Repco/Supercheap etc is the Penrite and PBR... lol

I think I will take safe option and grab the PBR as I don't know the Penrite wet boiling point...

:banana:

bugger dan, Do you know the boiling points on the project Mu stuff?

WRRR, did you use the Penrite at the track?

Yeah, but only a bit of lightish practice. Really didn't push to the limit but the feel seemed ok. Really need a sustained flogging to be sure.

Guys we can also add to the list:

Penrite SIN 600 310 C (dry), 198 C(wet)

590 F(dry, 388 F(wet)

Cheers

Before you go chasing the last tenth of a degree of boiling point (dry anyway) you should be aware that the Motul RBF600 is now RBF660 with the following numbers:

617° F Dry Boiling Point

400°F Wet Boiling Point

The RBF 600 is/was:

Dry Boiling Point - 585°F

Wet Boiling Point - 421°F

So it is better when new, but worse when old.

awesome

thanks for that.

went with PBR 600 for anyone interested, just a case of what was available on sunday rofl. Will see how it goes and dump it after this day anyway some something more preffered.

cheers

Michael

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
