My car would shudder and make noises around turns with the Redline fluids.

You need to add a LSD additive to get rid of that shudder.

I live in a colder climate area so I use 2qt mt-90 and 1qt MTL in my five speed.

Works very well.

I've used Redline MT-90 for my trans, 75w90 in the rear diff and shockproof lightweight in the tc before.

I then switched to just Redline MT-90 in the trans and Mitsu Diaqueen in the diff/tc.

The Redline stuff is great but just be sure to change it out right after you get done with a track event as the fluids seem to break down sooner than the OEM stuff. This was done all in an 06 MR.

If anyone is in need of Redline Fluids, I am one of the larger distributors of it, as well as OEM Diaqueen! Please PM if you guys are looking for any Redline fluids in particular (motor oil, gear oil, shockproof, etc...). Thanks!

I just did my tranny oil change and used: 2 quarts MT90 and 1 quart MTL and the transmission shifts soooooo much smoother. All the notchiness is gone .

Diaqueen in the center diff? The center differential is located in the transmission.

Hey,
I live in jersey and the weather can fluctuate from winter to summer and I was reading about users on the forum mixing mt-90 with MTL (redline fluids) Do i need to do this? I would rather use 2.9 quarts of mt-90 and this is gonna be my first tranny change. I just wanted to know if i will run into grinding or problems if i use only mt-90. car is stock.
thanks
