Default Tranny fluid or gear oil?

I have a 2001 gt 5 speed. Does my car have tranny fluid or gear oil? Also how so I change/add it?

should be like 75w90. changing the trans fluid is easy. remove the filler plug then the drain plug. then you can either pump the new oil in or do a gravity feed where you use some tubing and a funnel. fill it from the fill plug till it starts to come out. should be like 2L. fill plug is 17mm and drain plug is 24mm. there also might be some plastics covering the bottom so you have to remove those to axis those bolts.
