I was wondering if anyone is using any aftermarket fluids like the Redline ATF and Water Wetter and Motul brake fluid (ref. Stillen website) and whatever replacement power steering fluid there is? If you are or have heard good/bad things about any of these or any other ones that are available I would appreciate your comments.

I've heard from several people that have used those products with good results. However, the downside is they cost a lot more and still need to be replaced at regular scheduled intervals. You have to decide for yourself whether a little better performance/protection is worth the much higher expense. If you don't race or don't drive in extreme conditions regularly then it's probably not worth it.
