Alright I know there has been many threads about this matter, but I want to know what Red Line Trans & Gear Oil every one uses. Assuming that most of you have a 5-speed & LSD.

MT-90 for the transmission , it's a night and day difference. My brother had stock fluid in his 01 Sentra and we swapped in some MT-90, you can notice the difference. Also NSRZ32 runs all Redline's products in his Z and has no complaints.

It works better for winter too. No hard shifts in the winter like regular 80-90.

You can try using Motul Motylgear. It feels smoother than the MT90 I was using for a while.
