tnord is an unknown quantity at this point
i will concur. did you have oem pads in there? cause when i had my Z32 and i put new pads on, the next time i went to the track they smoked like a SOB. the oem pads are junk, they fade like a bastard. i'd try bleeding first, if there aren't any air bubbles in the system, then it's most likely the pads.

DOT3 and DOT4 are of same practicality for daily use, but 4 has higher boiling points, and is most likely more expensive, other than that, i don't know any downsides. oh yeah, dot3 and dot4 WILL mix. dot5 like the other dude said, is silicone based and won't mix well. there's something about what happens when water is introduced to the fluid, but i can't remember, look it up.
