Default Rear Differential Fluid
im throwing in royal purple 75w 90 in my 02. its a GL-5 fluid, and says its for limited slip differentials. but do i need to put an LSD fluid additive in it anyway. and if so, do i need to go to honda to get it. or can i use the standard stuff. like Trans X LSD additive?

No additive needed. If its GL5, you're set.

Note that the Honda recommended diff oil is a straight 90 weight.
