All you need is Honda's MTF.
All S2000's - worldwide - use Honda MTF as OEM transmission oil.
The type of transmission is not a factor.

I know man but its not available in my country(neither any other US brand oil or the GM syncromech)
Thatks why I want to know, if its an AP1 tranny I'll use a sythetic 10W40 motor oil

And if its not an AP1 transmission?

10W-40 is a replacement for OEM Honda MTF.
In every S2000 type transmission.
Shifting will be harder with engine oil in the trans.

According to my MY00 manual, you can use it "for the time being", IOW temporalily, not permanently.

Have you followed the advice in your other post about trans oil?
Ask other brand car dealers for trans oil?
Not everyone is using engine oil.. are they?
