People have said that syncroshiftII works well in the 5speed transmissions. It is a bit thinner than the oem fluid so it should shift smoother but the downside is that it might be too thin if you track the car. Also, this oil is what buschur uses in their cars.

Diaqueen OEM and then ASMOIL ( AMSOIL much smoother at least in warm weather )

How was your experience running the Redline MT-85?

It's basically Kracka's cocktail in a bottle.
