Is it ok to run with Mobile 1 10w30 fully synthetic motor oil for the B16 tranny on my GSR?

 

Thats what I use.

 

For a bit, i believe its ok....itsn't tranny fluid much thicker?

 

Are there any problems because I hear some people say not to use fully synthetic.

i would just run Honda MTF. i had a buddy who used Royal Purple in his tranny and fried the **** out of it after a month or two.

 

I just want to start it up and see how it runs because it's been down for over a year.

 

Ive used Honda MTF and stripped all the splines in 4 gears......

 

Yea. I've heard alot of good stuff about Honda MTF and GM synchomesh. But I'm gonna use Mobile 1 for now. I just want to see how it runs.

 

Yes, Honda says either is fine. I've run all kinds of different stuff in my tranny over the years, none of which made any difference. Then again, I'm not the type that thinks 2whp is a difference.

 

Yea. I don't care about the 2whp difference just as long as it runs good, I'm fine.

 

Ive used plenty too. I used Honda MTF when I first got my Integra 11 years ago. Always used OEM Honda stuff, took it to Honda for maintenance, etc etc. Then I didnt have the money to do that anymore and started using others and found out it is all about the same. The only thing is I do notice a little difference is in smoothness with synthetic tranny oil.
