Hey guys, I am wondering what everyone's opinion is on the "best" synthetic ATF to use for my 1994 Honda Civic a/t. When I first bought the car I fell for the "only use genuine Honda atfz1" b/s, but hated it because it seemed "too thin" and "slippery", which made the trans shift soft, and smooth and slip (which would be great for an older person, or girl, but not for me). So, I started using Mobil 1 synthetic atf (it used to say it worked in Honda/Acura transmission where atfz1 is required) and preferred the way the transmission acted so much more than Honda aftz1 (trans didnt slip as much, shifts felt firmer and more positive). Now, the Mobil 1 syn atf no longer says anything about being suitable in Honda a/t's where atfz1 is used, so I am kind of weary on using it now. So, which synthetic atf would you guys suggest?
I want good, quality, synthetic ATF that is "suitable" for use in Honda/Acura transmission where atfz1 is "required".
I do not want to use genine Honda atf. Or any non synthetic.
I want something that wont "slip" as much as Honda atf.
I want something that will cause the transmission to shift harder/firmer and more positive than Honda atf.
What do you guys suggest?
Amsoil? Which one exactly?
Redline? Which one?
Royal Purple?
Continue using Mobil 1 (even though they took "suitable for use in Honda/atfz1" off the bottle?
Some other good, quality, synthetic atf that will work good?
