cany anyone recomend a good tranny fluid?
EDIT: Whoops misread that, for the tranny I used the stock Honda fluid. I went with the Honda fluid because supposedly there is some special additive in it to prolong syncro life.

Even though it says it resists oil and grease... from what I gather from reading some posts here and what my mechanic tells me, these pumps work great for a while, then the gear lubricants will eventually eat away the seals and it'll leak. If you want to hold on to it for a while, you might want to look into cleaning it up well after using it and possibly hitting the seals with a silicon spray. Just a thought, (and possibly overkill) but I'd prob do it just to be sure.

i need to do tranny actually, when Thomas?
Sat-party at charlie
Sun-Limerock maybe
Mon-Quality time with the lady
Actually, Sunday maybe a good day. Sveta wants to see some racing, but I am not a big fan of driving all the way to Limerock. Actually, I got a brank new grill. Sunday diff and trans fuild change may just work.
Any taker?

I know Jeff had a lot of success with a pump doing our diffs at the last fall fluids day at his place. I did my tranny a few weeks ago and just bought some plastic tubing from home depot for a buck. Some utility knife work on one of the tops to the fluids got the tubing through, and a liberal amount of packing tape secured it. It got my 2 quarts in... and a bit on my arms, but it worked. In the future I would spend a few more bucks on a pump, though. I used the OEM Honda fluid.
