Default Tamiya Shock oil

I have been looking some time now for a Comparison chart for TAMIYA oil with other brands, preferable Asso Shock Oil.
On several attemps I have not found such a chart.
I found others, comparing other brands of shock oil, but never comparing with Tamiya oil.

Now .. from what I learned about these oils and the ways they are "typed" ... I might think the numbers Tamiya uses, might be the sameas the Cts-value (Centistokes, see here )

If so, I could compare them with other charts giving the Cts-value of other brands of oil, as I found here.
I plan to switch to one brand of oil, Asso oil, which I already use for my B4 and other buggies.
But, I do have some setups for my Tamiya-car and the shock-oil makes an important role in this, that's why I would like to know which Asso oils are similar to Tamiya-oils 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 and 800

Does anyone have some more info on this?
