Redline MT85, took me more time to get the car up than to change the fluid. Make sure you open the fill port plug before removing the drain plug lol.
I've been using Redline MT-85. What's the new formula called?

Or are you referring to MT-85? Been around for almost 10 years, AFAIK.

When I started looking, people were mixing MTL and MT-80.

Then Redline came out with a 370Z/G specific which is the MT-85.

I'm not sure dates that that happened... for all I know it might have been a decade ago lol. I mean heck, all the 'related topics' threads I see under the posts in any thread on here are usually from 2009 or so... so maybe, yeah. LOL.

Take a look in the Southwest region forum. Someone may have discussed this.

I think this is just you being kind, in some odd, self-deprecating way. Your G is a boosted, show car, for pete's sake, slushbox notwithstanding. And you're on the precipice of taking it up a couple notches with Next Car. Meanwhile, the gap between your end of the forum's demographic curve and the typical member... that gap continues to widen with age.

So with all that being said... 3-pedals, FTW

Don't know what you're looking for, but try including keywords like amateur and threesome.

"some" camber wear, LOL And look, optional bolt patterns! That's hilarious, Corprin. I bet it took you all of 10 seconds to find that.

I swear, sometimes the mind reels when face to face with stoopid.

Haha, Not nice! LOL

Well don't get me wrong, I still love my G. But we've been doing some remodeling on our house and my Porsche is literally trapped in the garage so I've been deprived of driving a car with a manual since January.

So my daughter (7) now calls my car the night fury (a la How to Train your Dragon) because it's black, very fast, hard to see at night, and whistles when its going really fast.

Out of the mouths of babes...

Find someone to cut you a 4" decal that reads TOOTHLESS, and stick it down low on one of the doors or the side sill.

She'll love you forever for that. And actually, that could be kind of cool.
