What brand?

What ever makes your wallet happy.

Any brand is good as long as it's quality like castrol syntec, mobil 1, etc. Personally I think royal purple is the best. As for Tranny oil if it's auto ONLY use Honda ATF.

You can use Redline D4 or Amsoil ATF as well. Or if your using a rebuilt unit with out oem honda clutches you can use whatever you want.

Royal Purple I definately recommend and for the tranny Honda ATF or the ones he listed as well.

Eh Royal Purple isn't worth the excessive price. Pennzoil Full Synthetic will work good enough at a reasonable price. Also it can be had 5qts + k&n/purolator filter for around 35 bucks at advanceauto.

But I heard that once u use synthetic oil you can never change back and use any unsynthetic oil? Not too sure if it's true but something I was warned of.

Royal Purple is Synthetic too. You can do what ever you like, you might develop a small leak or two, or you might be fine. Only one way to find out.

Unless your engine is going to be under extreme stress, there's really no need to use an expensive oil. Any quality oil of the correct weight will work just fine in an F22A.

Agree. If you are not beating the engine up neither is the oil. Quality band oil and filter.

Opinions will vary. I recommend either Mobil or Genuine OEM Honda juice. Peace.

I use Mobil Clean 5000 on the DD, change it every 5k miles and consistently get 32mpg. Engine has 257k miles and no leaks. Honda OEM Oil filter
