What is the consensus on what is the best transmission fluid for these cars? And what is the other cars that run with this transmission? Someone mentioned possibly Miata. I'm going to search and see what I can find.
Sounds like you're sneaking up on the problem. -

As far as the transmission fluid, I suggest you stick with the type of oil specified in the maintenance manual. What brand, hell I donno, I don't see why the factory fill stuff isn't just fine.

I still suggest you bleed (or have bled) the clutch system, especially since you realized an improvement by adjusting the clutch.
