  1. Hi,

    Sounds like not using racing brake fluid. I was recommened to use

    the blue race fluid.

    One can use ATE Type 200 or Super Blue; the only difference is the color, Motul 600, or for "problem children", Castrol SRF.

    The most important thing is to flush & bleed the system a few times a year for those who do track events. :)

  2. I've got a year 2000 Gt3 that had a complete brake failure on track recently. The pedal was nice and solid but nothing was happening at the wheels. Its got larger rotors on it with extra cooling and it wasnt brake fade or not enough heat in them. They were fine at the same point on the previous lap. I've had the abs system checked using the Porsche computer and the memory doesnt show any faults and there is nothing trapped down near the pedal box. Its back on the road now and the brakes seem yo be working ok but i dont want to use it properly until i know what went wrong. Any ideas?

    Those are very typical symptoms for either:

    1) Boiled (old) brake fluid

    2) Brake pad "green fade" from not being properly bedded before use
