the best thing u can use i think is GM synchmesh updated formula which is same as pennzoil (...) someone will correct me for sure,
amsoil is good too

+1 for GM syncmesh but I didnt like the amsoil tranny fluid (Their oil is awesome though).

GM Syncromesh Friction Modified.

I have used Red Line oils and gear lubes in my race boats and cars for years but never the MTL.

Thanks for the replys. Anyone have specs on the GM Synchro?

Havent noticed any diff between Honda reformulated MT fluid and syncromesh. 166k miles on oem clutch and no trans issues at all, and it isnt babied.

Are you using the GM Syncromesh "Friction Modified"

Yep. Dont get me wrong, the GM stuff seems good. Definitely better than the old formula Honda stuff. Its just easier to buy the Honda reformulated since they always have it in stock and it seems to shift/feel the same. I have never had any shifting/grinding problems though, so I cant comment if it works any better on more significantly "aged" parts.

Tried old Honda MTF, new formula Honda MTF, Redline MTL, GM Synchromesh FM, and Amsoil MTF in an Integra and the CL6. Newer Honda, Redline and GM was better shifting than the old Honda formulation. Amsoil MTF gives the smoothest shifting in my CL6.

I ended up using the Redline MTL. It was a big improvement over what was in the tranny. Much smoother and better overall feel.
