I don't know about Honda manual transmissions, but Ford manuals use automatic transmission fluid. If Honda does the same I don't think there would be much benefit in using a lighter lubricant.

Friction modifiers in ATFs probably help synchros live longer in manuals.

Without fuel, they were nothing..thundering machines sputtered & stopped..Only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive. The gangs took over the highways, ready to wage war for a tank of juice
