I have already read the 250 posts which debated whether Mobil 1 was up to par with Amsoil.

I don't want this to be another oil war.

Which is the best ATF to use generally?

I don't believe I have a Mobil 1 ATF.

Also, does one have to flush the Trans in the 3rd Gen?

If you have a stock Nissan tranny, use Nissan ATF. The mechanics at work use Nissan ATF in their non-Nissan cars, and not because it's a better price or whatever.

If you have like a Level 10 tranny or something, you might want to ask them what they recommend for the raised line pressure, etc.

Thank you Kaleb. Nissan ATF it is.
