I used that oil in my last WS-6 and loved it. I switched between several different brands and types (synthetic and dino and 50/50) and always went back to the REDLINE.

If you do choose to go with REDLINE, then make sure that the only tranny fluid you use is the D4ATF, because their normal manual tranny fluid is too slick for our transmissions.

Right now Mobil 1 has the best stuff on the market, fluid-wise. Their detergents are the best, and also help to protect for extra wear and tear. Not too mention, their tranny fluid is also cheaper then REDLINE's.

If it were me, Mobil 1 would get my vote, but its up to you. Good luck. <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">
