Synthetic is typically more slippery, so I figured the dino lube might engage the sycros better.
Yeah,I tried MT90 once. It was ok,just seemed like the tranny got really stiff and notchy once it was good and hot. I was on TT.NET last night (Nissan Z forum) and a guy had just installed Redline Heavy Shockproof in his car (isn`t it something like a 75W250?) and he said his tranny has never felt better. He said he could even speed shift at 8000 rpm and it was smooth as could be. If anything,I`ll try the Sta Lube SAE140 and see what happens. And like you said about the dino fluid working better for synchro engagement,I read the very same thing on a Corvette forum.
