engine oil sg rating

I spent all day looking for one with ratings that are listed in the car's manual: api service sg sae 5w-30 energy conservingII. I could not find one with these ratings. Not even one. What do you guys use?

You should be fine with 10w30. 5w30 isn't hard to find though...hop over to advance auto or something and they have bottles of it.

Either they're all that way, or you don't need it. Grab some redline or whatever from the closest auto store, I run the shitty advance auto brand 10w30 in my prelude all the time.
