Don't buy Super Blue, it stains your fluid reservoir and messes with your clutch slave cylinder.
Buy Motul RBF600 if you need a track brake fluid (dry BP is 593*F) or Motul DOT 5.1 if the car is for street use only.
Autospeed Performance (www.autospeed.us) or Pure Motorsport (www.purems.com) carry Motul products.

I'd avoid ATE. I just flushed with ATE Typ 200 (the yellow Super Blue) and sure enough...
my clutch is now squeaking. Something about their formulation not agreeing with the seals in my newly-replaced Sachs clutch slave cylinder.
I'll be flushing again with something else (Motul? Pentosin?) in the coming weeks.
