My S2000 is due for a brake fluid change. I'm not sure what kind of fluid I should put in there. I will probably drive the car for 4-5000 spirited street miles, 10-12 autocrosses and maybe 1 track day. Also, where should I buy it from?

its a racing fluid.

How much brake fluid does an S2000 need?

I quart should do you fine for a thorough bleed. 2 quarts if you don't want a chance of even a drop of the old fluid left in.

I can get ATE Super Blue from the Tire Rack for $12. I live 10 minutes away so I won't even have to pay for shipping.

The neat thing about the blue color is that you know when you're done with each wheel (assuming your old fluid was not blue, of course).

Motul 600 only for me.

Motul 600 is one of the highest performing, and affordable options. It supposedly should be changed once a year (or more frquently) though. I'm guessing this is fine for you since 4-5000 miles is your limit.

I have always just bled a few pumps per wheel each event when I change wheels (I have speedbleeders, so very easy and quick). and never had a problem. I presume this turns over the fluid at least once or more per year (since I go through a couple bottles or so a year), and presumably gets fresher fluid into the caliper itself for each event. I highly recommend speedbleders.
