Gear box oil ATR

Hey just wonderingwot oil to put in my gearbox is it Honda mtf or can I use anything else?

Just MTF

Not sure if it's the same for the ATR, but for the K20 transmissions, a gear oil is the wrong fluid to put in your gearbox. There is a nice write up on Mfactory's website about gear oil/transmission fluids.
If you were I, I'd use honda MTF and sleep easy...

MTF alot of the guys who I know with ATR's use Amsol mtf from opie and no one has ever had any issues with it.

Yup Amsoil MTF is very good, I have it in both my cars with no problems.

From the Amsoil website - "Replaces Honda Genuine MTF fluid"

Pre facelift suffers from 5th gear synchro issues.

Guys, I have similar problem. Would Castrol Manual TAF-X 75W-90 fit? I have read somewhere, that MTF from honda should be 75W-80...

Just use Honda stuff.

Thank you. That is what I thought. Only thing about Castrol is, that it is easier to get.
