Shane Finn:
Try Castrol Super Dot 3 from Repco. It has a boiling point much higher than you might expect for a cheap DOT3 fluid - close to much more expensive DOT4 fluids. Also I recommend getting some Earls speed bleeders to help with the bleeding.

I bleed mine about 12 times a year (whenever I change back and forth from race pads) and replace the fluid completely yearly. I have a Mity-Vac vacuum bleeder but find that the speed bleeders are just as good if you don't want to buy the vacuum bleeder.
