For transmission fluid, Amsoil, Motul, Redline, Royal Purple, just to name a few. Likewise for the engine oil, including Mobil 1.

With all of the major oil companies out there, I really highly doubt Nissan has "engineered" their very own oil. It's probably just some name brand that met their specs and they approved and relabeled as their own.

nissan oils are pretty much motul with a nissan label and 3x the price.
