Always use MANUAL transmission fluid for manual cars. You can use engine oil, like 10W30....BUT I recommend using OEM HONDA MANUAL TRANSMISSION FLUID (sold at the dealer). For your car, you'll need about 2-3 quarts. And each quart bottle is like $7 or $8 if I remember.

I appreciate all you guys help and feedback and I know I should've searched but I just figured there were probably a couple hundred people on here that would just throw me some answers. Never heard of using motor oil. But thanks again y'all
