Just honda brake fluid from the dealer. I use ATE racing blue,it has a higher wet and Dry boiling points, but i autocross... for DD ATE or Honda would be fine.

The Honda dealership guy himself told me that Honda DOT 3 brake fluid is exactly the same as the aftermarket stuff you buy, it's just a lot more expensive and it's hard to find in a big jug. So if your draining the entire line you will need a big jug. I say just get the cheaper aftermarket stuff and save yourself some money.
