Question Gear Oil?

Well its that time to do maintenance on the car and I don't know which gear oil to use for the diff? I did some searching already, but I didn't find a definite answer.

Would Nissan Synthetic Gear Oil 75W-140 fine? Or do I have to use 80W-90 gear oil? Any suggestions? Thanks for any input!

I like Amsoil Severe Gear 75-90. Was the top rated brand on a gear oil comparison I found on the web. You might find it local, but if you have to order online, contact Swivel Hips on here. He's a dealer and should be able to help you out.
