I run the ATE Type 200. Its the same as the old "superblue." The nice thing with superblue and the amber type200 is that when you were swapping/flushing fluid you just went until you saw the color change. But superblue is no longer available.
In any case, the Type200 is plenty unless you are hitting extremely demanding track days. The motul/rbf fluids are great but they also absorb moisture from the air more readily than the ATE fluid. This means you have to flush your system more often. The ATE stuff can be left in the system much longer without losing its ability to handle heat and provide good pedal feel. The "track day" stuff has a higher boiling point but is also meant to be flushed out much much more often. So balance your fluid with your driving and your ability/willingness to do maintenance.
Track stuff for track cars. You don't want to run track pads on the street as you won't generate enough heat for them to be useful. No sense in rear ending someone cause your brakes were too cold.
Same with street/performance pads. They won't hold up to track day temps.
Track fluid for track car/track days. Street fluid for a street car. Match your pads/rotors/fluid to what you are doing.
I will say the ATE 200 has held up very well for me. I used it in a set of brakes that I melted the piston into the backing plate. Some of the mountain roads in the smokies are very very demanding on brakes. I have had no issues with that fluid. It should work extremely well for you.
Don't mix the fluids. In my experience one "can" of the ATE fluid will be more than enough to fill your reservoir and flush the entire system.
