Default Diff and Auto Box Oil Recommendations

Afternoon all. 2006 JDM Legacy Tuned by STI. It has the EJ20X 2.0 engine with a 5 speed autobox.

Car has done about 86000 miles and had an autobox rebuild (minor work) about 10k ago. Fluid is needing a flush and I thought I would do the diffs as well. Both seem healthy with no noises etc.

​​​​​​I know 75/90 is recommended in the diffs, I'm looking for brand recommendations based on mileage as I know for some leggier cars certain oils are better.

And for the auto box any recommendations are great. The translated manual states "use Subaru auto fluid" which doesn't help haha.

Thanks in advance.

you're gonna need some serious paint correction on that roof, lol. sounds like you drive her a lot tho, so no biggie. use her like you stole her, haha. mine is a garage queen that you'd be hard pressed to find a scratch on, just so you know where I'm coming from. I just changed my trans and diff fluid with amsoil severe gear.
