    I've heard older hondas could use motor oil but not ours. GM syncromesh if youre having grinding issues or just go to the dealership and get regular honda mtf. I'm sure someone else will chime in with redline oil numbers and such.

    I used Red Line MTF, my car shifted so much smoother under hard acceleration.

    Maybe but I recommend you get it from a chevy or gm dealership. I would use this or the new Honda MTF (green bottle)

    All my Honda had was Honda MTF in a black bottle. Idiots work at the Honda dealership here.
