Doable with 1L, but probably safer with 1.5L.Hi friends,
How much brake fluid should I buy to make sure there’s enough to properly bleed the system?

Awesome, thank you!Doable with 1L, but probably safer with 1.5L.
Holy shit … That’s a bit excessive. If that’s from the CSGs, I’m digging my Hawks even moreIf you use CSG brake pads and care about your paint long term, make sure you use a good iron remover when washing your car after a track day.
This is after one track day with CSG C21 pads in the front. The whole side of the car has iron embedded in the paint. My PMU Club Racers also did this, any good track pad will, but at a MUCH smaller scale.
I have csg pads front and Rear and have been to the track a few times and mine isn’t this bad. Granted I do a iron remover twice a year on the carIf you use CSG brake pads and care about your paint long term, make sure you use a good iron remover when washing your car after a track day.

Trust me, My DTC60s did the EXACT same thing lol I was washing my car after at track day and noticed how much grime was running down the side of the car and thought "wait a minute, thats probably brake dust" a few sprays of iron remover later, the WHOLE side of my car looked just like Bryan'sHoly shit … That’s a bit excessive.

Yea, Hawks are notorious for this as well.Trust me, My DTC60s did the EXACT same thing lol I was washing my car after at track day and noticed how much grime was running down the side of the car and thought "wait a minute, thats probably brake dust" a few sprays of iron remover later, the WHOLE side of my car looked just like Bryan's
Also for the love of god, Mods can we please get this thread stickied???????????
But I can pepper my car for ½ the priceYea, Hawks are notorious for this as well.
Indeed. I actually hate these CSG pads but haven’t shared because I know I will be chastised by the members of the echo chamber for it.But I can pepper my car for ½ the price
What do you dislike about them?Indeed. I actually hate these CSG pads but haven’t shared because I know I will be chastised by the members of the echo chamber for it.
If I’m trail braking properly, I can get a lot more out of my pads. Thus the Hawks have been pretty damn good. I would like to try the project mu’s sometime.What do you dislike about them?
For me, I ran them on my GR86.
What I did not like.
- I felt like they were super overpriced as I assume they are rebranded pads from another manufacturer, maybe the compound played around a bit at the request of CSG.
- They did not have the bite that Carbotech XP12s had and I like bite, like a lot. Even my Current DCT 60s don't seem to have the carbotech bite. I like to late brake as I had to pass people on the corner entry since Corvette owners are notorious for not lifting on a straight even after giving you the point by and trying to make you look silly as in "look you wanted a point by and could not pass me lol", anyway, I like stuffing those assholes in a corner as I take the the inside line with a late brake and when you have low bite pad, this move gets a bit out of control, which makes it too sketchy for track days.
What I did like:
-They lasted forever...like they wore to 50% in a few track days and then literally stopped wearing. I thought I could keep them on a whole season. I think considering that, amortized over the many track days they last, their price is justified, as long as you like the compound.
Ah that's a shame, I used to alternate ATE gold/blue to ensure full flush without wasting too much. What do people do nowadays?do not recommend using ATE Type 200 on our Supras.
