You probably won't notice much difference between brake fluid from Honda, ATE Super Blue, Castrol LMA, or Valvoline Synpower brake fluids unless you track the car and get the brakes hot enough to boil the fluid. That's really hot, by the way.
I would actually recommend ATE TYP200 over SuperBlue because it doesn't have that crappy blue dye that will stain your brake system blue (on my Miata, the fluid kept coming up green or light blue even after several flushes with amber fluid).
As for transmission fluid, I have been running Redline MTL. It is meant to be a replacement for Honda MTF. Other people like GM Synchromesh-FM, which I haven't tried.
Lubrication Engineers LE607 Almasol is the stuff for the differential.
