Hi All,
I figured I'd ask you guys, since this website and forum is almost priceless when it comes to lubrication information/advice.
I own a 1992 3000GT VR4, which has a 5 speed Getrag transmission, which I just had freshley rebuilt. Here are the fluid recommendations:

Recommended lubricants (from the service manuals)
Manual transaxle and transfer case:
Hypoid Gear Oil, SAE 75W-90 or 75W-85W conforming to API classification GL-4
The Getrag used on these AWD 3000GTs have yellow metal syncros. I am currently running BG Syncroshift II (75w-80),and it is expensive. Is this to light of a gear oil? Would you recommend going with Redline MT-90 or another brand with a GL-4 rating that has a good reputation?
I drive the car hard on the street, and want the most protection I can get without sacrificing shifting smoothness.
Any advice is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance
