I think this is correct? Im gonna pick some up and get it in tomorrow. This is the stuff I want right? 34k on car. Stock clutch, not sure when tranny fluid was last done so Im just gonna do it anyway. Thanks!

That's what you want. I've been using it about a year in a half now. I don't know how I got by without it. It is wonderful. Great for cold mornings and easy shifts. Enjoy!

How many quarts do I need also???

ORBRIT

I use AMSoil Series 2000 MT fluid - same silky shifts but I heard there was less deterioration at high temps.
If you're switching from normal gear oil to synthetic, you'll want to flush your trannie first using any generic gear oil - that will remove most of the debris. Drive with a lot of shifting for about 20 minutes, then drain and refill with Synthetic.
Volume is 4.5 qts, but you actually fill until it starts coming out of the filler hole.

A good writeup can be found on StygianMax's Homepage

how much would a shop charge to do this?

Jr'sMaxima

I actually inquired about it and I was charged $10 for the drain and flush, and fill. I couldnt pass that up but I know the guys there so I prolly got a good discount. 5 quarts costed me $45 but so far its worth it.....nice smoooooth shifts!!!! My other stuff looked really clean anyway, but this is still smooother for sure!
