    I was just wondering what's the best type of:
    Motor Oil
    Trans Oil
    Coolant
    Brake Fluid
    Power Steering etc.

                      I use napa or valvoline cheap stuff. has worked in my cars for over 100k. Both napa and valvoline are the same. Most coolant is the same too. not to many additives in coolant. Just make sure its green and not the orange kind like chevys use.

                        Motor Oil - i've always run castrol high mileage
                        Trans Oil - honda genuine manual tranny fluid
                        Coolant - it's not a race car so just about anything will do. just make sure you always use the same mixture type. it wouldn't hurt to flush your system (from the radiator AND the engine) and just refill it from scratch
                        Power Steering - i use the Accel "For Hondas"

                              stop fucking yelling you douche bag



                              Use castrol synthetic, valvoline synthetic, amsoil, RP, or torco. Do an oil analysis to determine which is best for your engine. (the latter being more expensive and prolly better)

                              Only use mobile 1 synthetic if you like paying synthetic price for a conventional oil (that's why it's crap...cause it isn't synthetic)


                              For P/s use only fluid that is made for honda's. Doesn't have to be FROM honda. Just made FOR a honda.

                              Tranny...use syncromesh or the "new" stuff from honda.
                              for an auto. use something synthetic

                              Coolant...50/50 or 70/30 do NOT run straight water.
