If you are using Motul RBF 600 or 660 that is a race oriented brake fluid and will absorb moisture faster and will require to be changed out sooner. For a DD I would change out the brake fluid once a year or at the longest every two years. I would definitely research what brake fluids if you are asking these questions before making a selection on what brake fluid that would be best for your Z.

I prefer a 6 mon to 1 yr interval max for the RBF 600 fluid. Motul 5.1 is an excellent DD option, less expensive, and better suited for a 1-2 yr interval.
