What fluids for the G37??

Ever since i bought my 37 i never looked into the brake fluids and the power steering fluid, I remember the power steering said something about type ATF but i cant find it no where online, and i don't want to buy the wrong product.

basically just looking for the type fluids to use for the power steering and brake fluid, Its DOT 3 for the brake fluid right? what brand do you recommended?

Power steering. Owner's manual page 8-12.
Brake fluid. Owner's manual page 8-13.
Specific details on both page 9-2.

I looked in the owners manual, It just said Nissan PSF or Equivalent, Can't find the Nissan fluid online, But what do you recommend for the power steering fluid? Brand/Type

DOT 3 brake fluid doesn't really have to be Nissan's brand does it?

Any DOT3 brake fluid will work. You can also replace it all with DTO4.

We use Motul RBF 600 Dot4 for the brake fluid. Motul products is way to go
