Coolant recommedations?

What are you guys using for coolant in your 2nd gens? It looks like the newer generations specifically recommend using stuff without sulfites, and a lot of them will use the OEM stuff. Better for the water pump seals or something. My old VW said to use phosphorus-free.

My owner's manual only says to use stuff that's ethylene glycol based, which includes standard Prestone green. Anyone run into any problems with this stuff?

Thanks.

Just standard Prestone Green in my car, though either Prestone Green or Orange will work. :P
