Hi, I have been using strictly Stock fluid in my other car's ABS System.

I bought my nsx used and the previous owner had the ATE Fluid in all the system, I believed the clutch is also using the ATE Blue too, cuz it's kind of bluish...

Now the ABS fluid level is a little low, and I don't think it's a good idea to mix diff. fluid in it. Do you recommend putting a different brand brake fluid in it, or if I should change it back to Stock one??

I'll appreciate for any input.
 
Using ATE Super Blue racing in all systems (brake, ABS and clutch system) since 7 years in all my HONDA's... no problems.

If you ask a Honda dealer, he will answer you that its better to take the original fluid.
7 years before, my dealer told me that too with the reason that the ATE SBR could eat the gaskets (seals) .-))
But thats BS.

I renew that fluid all 4 years latest.
(I only drive 2.000 - 3.000 miles per year)
 
If your ABS fluid is just a little low but not below the “min” mark then I’m not sure I’d do much with it other than keep an eye on the level. When it’s time for the scheduled fluid flush or when it hits the min mark, then I’d have the dealer flush the ABS system and clutch and install the regular Honda fluid. I don’t think the ATE Fluid is doing any harm to any of your systems—it’s pretty good stuff.
