Nulon 10W-40 - the one in the gold bottle, has been highly recommended to me by a trusted B-series mech/enthusiast.

Or Castrol Magnatec, which I currently use in my Civic because it's decent and cheap.

i second that, im using it right now because my oil has been drained constantly with castrol edge.
5w-30 castol edge from supercheap is about 40bucks
10w-40 is about 60 i think, and prices of that will go down to 30 when its on sale.

castrol magnatec is 30bucks when its not on sale.

but ideally, 10w-40 from brands such as nulon, mobil1 or castrol edge are best no doubt.

also try to stay away from 15w-40 oils, they might seem attractive if 10w-30 is being consumed too quickly for your budget and 20w-50 is to heavy for a honda engine but these H badged engines wernt designed for 15w-40 either

i think my castrol edge specs from first post might be incorrect. but u get my idea
