Redline MTF
Has anyone changed from Redline MTF in their 6spd back to stock (non-synthetic)? If so, which did you like better? I am currently running redline and considering switching back to stock to see if it improves the shifting now that the tranny is definitley broken in. Thanks.

In my opinion, a much better synth to use is BG Synchroshift II. Its weighted more like a conventional oil, but gives more protection than synthetics. Its great stuff.

It's a synthetic that is more like a conventional, but gives more protection than synthetic?

. Its heavier feeling than Redline,(but still as viscous) but protects better than normal synth's.

2K2Phat, you looking for the cost of the MTL? I think it's the same cost as the MT-90 i just got, and averages $7.50-8 per quart from a variety of dealers online.

Do a google search for "redline mt-90" and you'll find tons of places. I got mine from a joint in MD, i cant remember the place though..

I just want to put the same type of fluid that was in there originally to see if it makes it shift better and also because you know they are going to give me crap about replacing the tranny (if need be) if they know I changed the fluid.

Why change it before bringing it to the dealer? It is a 75W-90 gear lube that meets the GL4 specs that Nissan requires, so what's the harm of having it in there?
