Search wins.

Redline Shockproof heavy...or medium.

[endthread] I've put 320+hp through that fluid, on autocross tracks, roadcourses, and literally hundreds of 5,000rpm+ launches at the dragstrip. [/endthreadforever]

75w90/gl-4 which Redline mt90 is and its good too. Or run penzoil syncromesh.

NA Cars Redline Shockproof lightweight , Turbo cars Redline Shockproof Heavyweight ...

Thats what I have used and always been happy with ....

Listen to this man.

x2 on the synchromesh i LOVE this stuff, it makes really great too for instant driving in 0 degree weather....took this note from the honda boys on grinding transmisions years ago and still stick with it

plus its like 6.50 a bottle and available off the shelf at autozone

redline MT90 here (going 10k track miles strong btw)

Nobody has addressed this particular question in this thread, or the other one linked above.

Does it matter what tranny you have and in which vehicle?

I always ran Redline Shockproof Heavy in my B13 tranny.

I have since upgraded to a B15 transmission (brand new Greg V Stage 3 clutchkit, Miko Tranny Saver Bracket, Stillen flywheel) in my Classic.

My mechanic used standard tranny fluid (Pennzoil IIRC) as recommended.

I have a bolted-on DE, a bolted-on well-tuned VE is in my future.

Should I upgrade the fluid in my B15 transmission to Redline?
