Either that, or get some GM or Pennzoil Synchromesh fluid.

 

wow never knew you could use reg motor oil in a tranny...

i run redline MT-90 in my celica and its been working well. i'm not sure if that would work well in a honda tranny or not. i think it is 75w90 if i remember correctly.

 

yea!
now people r using 10w30 on their honda transmissions because is similar to the mtf that honda makes.

Syncro-mesh is my drug of choice

 

I use a product called BG Synchroshift. I don't notice any difference at all, so my next change, I will switch back to the good ol Honda MTF.

 

i was told not to ever put anything but tranny oil, especially Honda's Manual Tranny oil. I will never put anything else in my tranny, and i have a b16 as well with a S21 tranny

 

1030 works fine

 

seems like you can put whatever you want in there huh? i was told to put only motor oil in by my engine builder but jeff evans put mobil 1 gear oil in my trans and said its the best so i dunno wif i should leave it in there or change to motor oil.

No, you can't, but honda does specify what weight motor oil can be used in the tranny.
