Default Honda Brake Fluid

The manual calls for Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid... but Honda only stocks Honda Dot 3 Brake Fluid. Is there a difference between the two?

You can use dot4 fluid as well. Brake fluid has advanced in the 6 yrs the car has been out of production. Go for the fluid with the highest boiling point, just stay away from dot5, dot5.1 is acceptable if you can find it, but dot4 is best.

Get some ATE type 200 (the un-dyed gold equivalent to super blue) from raceshopper.com. They have an 800 number, and the guys over there know their products backwards and forwards (fluids, pads, etc)

Excellent street life, and excellent on the track.

It also literally lasts upwards of 600% when used in the clutch resovior.
