Mitsubishi, on the other hand has worked closely with us, and VISCOSITY is the big issue. When we first started working with them our 75W-90 was just under limits at 18cSt. They noticed a big difference coming from Shell at 16.5.
We reformulated to 15.5, and finally to 14.5, making them real happy.

Nissan says you can use a GL-4 75W85 or 75W90 instead.
I guess the newer Nissan trannies can handle a slightly thinner oil, that didn't used to be the case.
ps.
aquariuscsm, does the bottle list an oil manufacturer or distributor?
