I just bought some of the factory dot 3 to change out both my brakes and clutch. It all depends on if you track or autox the car. If you do then you should probably go with dot 4 because of better temp specs. Otherwise if you dont want to change it out often then get dot 3. If you dont want to buy the honda stuff then any dot 3 brake fluid should work.

there is no benefit in using a dot4 over a dot3 for your clutch fluid
