I've been around for a while just reading the boards and figured it was time to sign up. I have an 08 A/C 3.5SE 6MT and am from Toronto, Canada. I'm planning on doing a few things to the car, but that's a bit down the road. As of right now the only thing not stock is the gear oil, 50/50 redline MTL/MT-90 mix.

cheers!

thanks for the welcome guys!

as for the redline, in my opinion it's like shifting in a completely different car, it's so much smoother, and there's no notchiness or grinding. it's especially noticeable when the car is cold ... and being from canada that's half the year! it's also very easy to change. no cons to speak of as of yet (i've had it in for about 10k miles)

I got a good deal out of Stage Four Motorsports last time when I ordered my two Mt90 and two MTL bottles

RED LINE : RED LINE MT-90 (75W90) REDMT90 14.99 x2 = 29.98RED LINE : RED LINE MTL (75W80) REDMTL 14.99 x2 = 29.98Free Shipping Over $40CDN 0.00 x1 = 0.00

Canadian Dollar Total 59.96
