You should be fine with any good quality 80-90 weight gear oil.   
Synthetics may cause seals to leak a bit more.   Due to the nature of the 
limited-slip, no LSD additive is required.   Quality gear oil is all you need.   I 
typically use Castrol, but I've used Valvoline too.

The most important thing is to change it periodically.   The book says 
initially after 4000-5000 km, and then after 16000-20000 km.   Also, change it 
ever 2-3 years regardless of mileage.
