Re: best oil
 
I ran motor oil for awhile. :l Picked up Pennzoil Synchromesh and dumped 2 quarts in today. However, Honda says 1.8 or something will fill it. Well there was a TON of .2 synchromesh that didn't want to stay in. :P I have yet to drive the car because no turbo and all, but what's everyone think about it? It's in a gear oil container, but isn't as thick as I thought it was going to be.

I like the Honda MTL, too, it's just 10W30 with a sulfur additive.

People using generic race MTLs meant for gear-oil lubricated transmissions... or the guy suggesting LSD additive (clutch or gear type?) if you have an LSD (clutch or gear type?) cracked me up a little.
