No Motul Gear 300??
 
Are there no places that carry this stuff? I managed to get Pentozin MTF2, but no Motul. Can anyone chime in?

Not locally that I know of. I got for the wrx online. I forget from where but its gonna be shipped in via freight.

Pentosins legit tho. That's all I used in my old VW.

Got the Pentosin for the trans, just trying to find fluids for the diff. I'm late on my personal fluid flush at 85xx miles... :mad0259:

Dunno if it's any easier to find out here but I'm running redline mt90. I've tracked with it a few times too very pleased with the results. Motul stuff is great but expensive and kind of a pain in the ass to find even back on the mainland.

Thanks for the suggestion. I ended up on eBay and bought some. To bad pentosin doesn't work in the diff.

Speaking of which did any of your reps/service guys tell you about the Krex additive they put in the cars? My rep was upfront about them having this Krex additive in with the oil but I can't really find any concrete evidence that says having or not having this is harmful.

Which leads me to believe just buying better quality oil anyway would be better then fussing over some additive - will likely tell them to just hold it on my first 3 free oil changes.

I have no idea what that stuff is sounds kinda like snake oil to me lol, might not be bad doesnt sound bad anyway. I was running the factory 0-20 toyota but I am currently running 5-30 mobile one for my last track day only because my 300v 5-30 didnt make it in time. Car seems to like the mobile one I would imagine the factory oil should be just fine as long as you arnt beating the crap out of it high revving track type stuff.

I didn't know they still made Krex. Back in the 70's I worked at a VW Mazda BMW dealership that put that in the cars. We always used to joke that Krex was better than sex. Probably because we made so much money on it.
