dexron III transmission fluid is the most common, you can also use red line products. But I would just use the Dexron

on the master cyl/slave cyl side . i always flush mine out of the stock fluid. clean it with brake cleaner and then do a final flush with alcohol. and then i put some dot 5 silicone brake fluid in there. definately a better pedal feel even more so when the car gets hot.

nope. thats just the right procedure before you put in dot 5 fluid. because its not compatible with the dot 3 thats in the car stock.

I've been running the O'Reilly brand DOT4 and I have had good luck with it. I didnt feel like flushing my lines or I would've gone with DOT 5.
