Spec R

Well I did a search, and I came up with a bunch of year-old threads on the topic, including some of my own....

Anyway I was just wondering if there were any new opinions or experience with the Red Line MTL tranny fluid, particularly any horror stories.

Reading one of my old posts, I last changed my tranny fluid halloween of 2002, about 23k miles ago.

Here, here! I have been contemplating switching over to synthetic RedLine, but I won't bother unless I hear positive comments about lower temps and better then OEM lubricated parts in cold weather.

I've been running Redline in my 95 teg since I got it 2 years ago. It seemed to make shifts smoother and is still feeling great. I'm going to be putting that in my fiancee's accord soon. I haven't had any issues with switching over, nor have I heard of anyone having problems. It's a lil pricey, but worth it IMO.

sweet, how many miles have u put on in those 2 years?

I've put over 40,000 on it. I'll most liekly change the fluid again soon just for the heck of it. I'm just trying to keep up with everything else on the car. Check out www.redlineoil.com for viscosity info/ratings. It doesn't get too cold here in NC, so I wasn't as worried about the viscosity at colder temps (32 degress and less) becuse it just doesn't stay cold for long stretches here as it does up north.

i've been told by two people i know that their redline MTF (when draining) had been foaming in the case.

I rarely go on TI because I always forget my login info. I cant have "Spec R" because there are no spaces allowed, so I use "Spec-R" which i always forget. Thanks for the link though, i'm reading up on it right now.

I use the yellow shit for 4 years, it's good times. Just don't use the blue hydroshock shit or else you will kill your tranny on the street. It's pretty harsh on the gears.
