Fluids from the Factory
Follow the manual
Use 10w30 synthetic in the motor and Honda MTF in the tranny
The diff is another beast... If the dealer isn't careful, they might use the same fluid as the Honda CRV and that will cause the diff to fail and leave you with a 2000+ bill.
They need to use diff fluid from thier marine division, better yet do it yourself. Get 75w90 GL-5 Fluid and read up in the FAQ section.

what fluids are used in the s2k from the factory as in if you buy a brand new car oil and tranny
If you are asking about what to use as a replacement for your factory fills, then read your owner's manual. It is very specific. If you want to learn a lot more about oils used in the S2000, then look in the Oil Journals:

I don't believe anyone knows for sure what the OEM engine oil fill is. It appears to be some sort of 20wt oil that is loaded with moly and silicon from manufacturer pre-lube. This is based on a couple of UOA's that we have seen.
