Manual Transmission Gear Oil Type

Manual Transmission Gear Oil Type
Folks,
I don't have a shop manual and the owners manual does NOT specify oil weight, but does anyone know what type (Oil weight) of gear oil is best suited for the Maxima? Also, can I use 75W Mobil-1 synthethic? Any harm for doing so? Anyone else use it?
I've never changed the gear oil (111K) and want to put in synthethic to ensure longevity. Hopefully the seals won't leak.
Thx for the help.

Get Redline from myoilshop.com
http://myoilshop.com/MTF.html . I'd recommend Amsoil Series 2000 GL4 over the Redline MT-90 but Amsoil discontinued it.
