Default Y1 cable transmission... what fluid to use ? ?

I've got a 90 crx si w/ a b16a, and Y1 cable transmission. I am currently in the process of re-vamping the entire suspension; while in the process i drained my tranny. To my suprise the fluid smells like 90 w. gear oil; the fluid wasn't thick though... i mean it still had the density of 10/30 oil. To the best of my knowlege every standard honda transmission i've ever serviced used 10/30 or 5/30 oil depending on conditions. Perhaps it just had a synthetic blend in it.... I called Honda to verify the fluid type... HA HA they are clue-less to JDM spec's. Does anyone know what fluid goes in my transmission ? ?

if its a LSD some use a GM syncromesh LSD fluid.... but the first one is by far the best....
