Try Redline MT-90 or Redline Synthetic 75-90W (Which has an LSD additive).. Once you get that you will never put oem stuff ever again, even if they paid you..
Redline may cost $30 per litre but it's well worth it!!!

Almost every single performance enthusiast in every forum worships the stuff.. have a search..

Brake fluid: A ITR dude who runs 1:12s at wakefield recommends Motul factory line racing brake fluid.. Only $25 per litre but it has a REALLY high boiling point.. Its as good as the Castrol racing fluid which cost over $100 per liter..

my 2 cents

I'd also stick with OEM oil for the box unless there is something wrong with it :)

Haha thanks porn. ;)

Reason I ask is that some LSDs are ****ing fussy bastards and prefer oil from that specific company, ie. Kaaz LSD oil for use with their LSDs. You can still use Honda MTF or FEO..... just some people in the states have noticed it being a bit temperamental.

If you are refering to the OEM honda helical diff like the one found in ITRs and CTRs (which is NOT an LSD), go the honda fluid.
