Subaru 80w-90 Diff oil - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I was at the dealership recently and saw that they have 80w-90 diff oil. I was just curious does this work for our cars? I know the manual says to use a GL-3 and higher or 75w-90 oil. Heres a link for reference.
