The only caveat I can give you is the service grade of the oil. Often, modern synthetics are too "slippery" for the synchros. For example, my CRX manual calls for 10w30 of SJ grade...good luck finding that grade now, everything is SL. I certainly wouldn't put something like Mobil1 in there. Your best bet would be Honda MTF or something like RedLine MTL. I run MTL in all of our Hondas. Sure, it's $8 a quart, but I figure $16 every 30k miles isn't too bad.

i picked up a 4 litre of SJ grade, i found it at... London Drugs of all places. they were getting rid of old stock i guess.
