actually you dont want to get mitsu oil. You want BG syncroshift II is the best IMO for the tranny.
Buschur has the lowest price on it

I got some of that synchromesh fluid, and it works great.. But really any 75-90 works fine for it.

But I would stick with the GM Syncromesh

ok since it is manual, really it depends on your budget.. if you can spend some money, the definitally get the GM Syncromesh.. but if you are short on cash, like TheAdvocate said, any 75w-90 from an auto store will do

its only $11 a bottle. The mobil 1 gear oil is gonna cost you maybe a couple bucks less than that. From most of the research i have done on this i almost always find that BG Syncroshift is the best tranny oil to get. Especially when its the only one that Buschur and AMS sell which they use in thier race cars.
