Gear Oil, what are youusing?
i havent heard anything about synthetic oils eating up metals. because synthetic oils are manmade and engineered to almost "soak" into the metal providing better lubricant. I have noticed smoother shifts with it!

Doesn't matter if it's synthetic or not, Do NOT use GL5 in our tranny's.
It WILL eat the brass in the synchros.

Bringing back an old topic, but I'm ordering my clutch today and and going to order some redline mt-90 fluid, but I can't seem to find how much the tranny takes, anyone know. I can't get hma to work cause IE has major spam and spyware issues, so I use mozilla, thanks.
