My local P-car dealer and trusted indy have different preferences in re. brake fluids. Both agree that brake system flush/fill should be done every two years along with the clutch system.
Assuming the car is strictly a "street" car (meaning no track time contemplated), what brand fluid and DOT rating is recommended?

Ate 200 is all you'll ever need, plus its cheap and easy to find
ATE Type 200 or Pentosyn Super DOT4 are popular ones. For a street car about any good DOT 4 will be fine. Some of the racing fluids require more frequent change interval such as Motul 600/660 so for a street car stay away from those.
Here's a guide to what ATE offers (Super blue is no longer sold in the USA though):
I am running the Pentosyn super dot 4 in my 996 currently.
