Redline MT-90 synthetic 75-90. I just switched to it last week and it makes for much smoother shifts, especially in the morning. It is GL-4 rated and everyone on here who runs it seems to like it a lot

I changed to Royal Purple and am amazed by it. Fixed a problem I've had with 4th gear ever since I installed my 6spd transmission.
