I primarily use TYP 200 because it provides the same level of performance.
ATE is all I use in my Road Racing Vintage Car. Flush once a year, great braking, I'm in a Pinto that can outbrake most Miatas, it generates some good heating and the fluid does great, no complaints.
Ate 200 caused my master cylinder in my M2 Competition to squeak. Wound up having to re flush with OE low viscosity fluid then again with SRF. It's a known problem in a few cars.
I've used ATE for 15 years and never boiled it at autoX.
On my Miata I run ATE Typ 200 and aven’t had any issues. I also run Hawk HP+ and some here would say they’re not a track pad, but for a light car they’re great.
I use the ATE 200 in my NB and will continue to for the foreseeable future it's been great stuff
For our light weight cars, ATE Typ 200 is good for basically all applications, up until you’re getting into high horsepower builds (motor swaps, high boost forced induction).
ATE Original TYP 200 is the GOAT. Look at the wet pointing point: 388F for ATE. 401F for Motul. An extra 13F isn't worth the price difference.
ATE Typ 200 is more than enough for autocross & daily and lasts longer between recommended full flush.
