When I replaced mine in March, Oilman (opieoils) recommended:

Much smoother gear change when cold as well using that.Comment

Standard box will be filled with DextronIII which is also used for the power steering system, if you are just driving day to day it will do the job.
If you like a bit of spirted driving etc I would put in something like the following.
