The FD was designed for plain old-school green coolant, 50/50 mix with water. In the US Prestone sells that type of coolant and it's commonly available, not sure what is available in your country. Some of the alternative coolants may not be compatible with the seals and materials in the engine.

To expand and emphasize what Dale said, G13 is not a good choice for an FD. In addition to what Dale said, if the cooling system is not 100% full of coolant mixture, coolants like G13 can allow serious corrosion. On the other hand, the old standard green coolant (ethylene-glycol) is designed for cars like the FD that often have some air left in the system even after bleeding.
