I've done two so far and about ready for my third. I really like Amsoil severe gear in the diff, it holds up as well as the Subaru Extra-S I use for wrx/sti's. The amsoil in the tranny though... really don't like the shift feel. I've been trying to find another GL3/4 to replace it with. Pentosin supposedly gives a nice shift feel, even cold, but it's so thin makes me second guess long term. Also, the trans is GL3/4 and the diff is GL5 oils. are you saying you'd use one type of motul for both? We have soft/yellow metal synchros in the trans and they can't handle a GL5 oil. It's the only reason I'm not running Extra-S for the BRZ as well. |

Thanks for the input! I've been reading that the Motul is good for both trans and diff. It is GL4 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64088 |

Holy crap, nine twins registered for C Streed in Toledo. I feel like I should come too, despite the chilly weather. We'll see how I feel Sat. night.

Here is a quick fun fact for everyone. Unlike every other car I have ever owned every headlight/day time running light in our cars has it's own fuse. I had a head light go out and I bought new bulbs but I still couldn't get it to come back on. I ended up finally figuring that out after a lot of testing and scratching my head.

Anyone in the market for a Hotchkis Strut Tower Brace? I'm selling mine cuz it won't fit cuz I got Crawford BPBs. It's brand new, never used. I also have stock springs and sway bars for sale if anyone wants those too lol
