Default Diff Fluid, what is everyone using?
I guess I have been out of the scene to long, because last night I went to order some 607 and it appears it's no longer on the market.

https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/850...#entry20337986

Anyway, what diff fluid is everyone using these days?

I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and go with the Amsoil Severe Gear. I also need some Synchromesh Friction Modified transmission fluid, so I much rather place an order with HTG and get everything from the same vendor.

I'm starting to lean towards this option.

Available everywhere. Well at least the Mobil 1 is and I'm sure you have a local Honda dealer.

A car that sits on jackstands doesn't need diff fluid.

Oh I thought this was a riddle. This is a serious question.

Redline 75-90W.
