Default Changing My Tranny And Diff Fluid Today!

I'm going to change my Tranny and Diff Fluid this afternoon, Just a quick question guys.

I'm buying 2 Quarts of Honda MTF Fluid at my Local Honda Parts Shop, but what about diff fluid, does Honda has a OEM FLUID for the Diff??

I dont think we have in PR LE Almasol 607 so i will be ordering it if i dont find it over here!

Any other Sugestions on Diff Fluid?

Thanks in Advance

Amsoil MTG in the trans and Severe Gear GL-5 75w-90 in the diff. Honda oils are inferior and the car shifts incredibly well with Amsoil MTG, it truly is "rifle bolt" smooth.

On the Amsoil SVO gear oil, they get 100K oci's in the big road trucks with it.

inferior in term of what?

OEM juice are engineer to provide a decent change internal, performs to spec for the whole demographic of s2k buyer.

you might get a race oil that provide excellent performance for short short period of time but it might not loaded with addictive and anti wear package for extended use(which most racer don't care for and don't bother with)

i used many mtf and there's one that breaks up twice as fast as oem juice
