I couldn't find the regular transfer case/LSD fluid for the Non-MR Evo's so I went ahead and purchased the stuff for the MR and put that in the car. Just wanted to make sure that was alright. According to the owner's manual I should be good to go, but I just wanted to make sure. I've already put a few hundred miles on the new fluid and everything seems fine.

There is only 1 LSD fluid. If you are going to put transmission fluid in there - STOP NOW!

Oh crap. Sorry I did put the regular Diaqueen LSD fluid in the transfer case. I meant to ask is the MR tranny fluid alright in a non mr tranny. Sorry.

^ +1 I prefer the OEM gl4 75w85 MR fluid in my MR 6-speed and I read about guys putting it in their 5-speeds with success. I saw this thread and was hoping it wasn't another "I put tranny oil in my transfer case thread" or worse yet the ATF thread the other day Cheers!
