Gear oil recommendations?

Post by **180fan** » Mon Oct 20, 2003 9:35 am

Alrighty, so I'm about to drop in an SR but need some recommendations about gear oils. I'm at the moment debating between the following

redline mt90motul gear 300mobil 1 75w-90

any others I should consider? I've heard that the mt90 is very soft on the synchros which is a good thing to hear. Any one hear differently?

I'm using Redline 75W-90, and it is pretty soft on the synchros...it all depends on you though; some people actually like it to be a bit thicker to ensure tighter shifts, but personally, I like the shifting to be light and smoother.

Go with Motul though if you have the $$$, good stuff!

AMSOIL 75W-90 Gear Lube. Thats the best S.H.I.T. you can get.
