You didn't research your product properly before purchasing it now did you.
i did. both are gear oil, both are GL5, both can be used for transaxle.

the difference, according to Redline is fiction modifier. 75w90 has it but 75w90NS doesn't. Our LSD isn't a clutch type so doesn't need fiction modifler and so NS was selected.

also 75w90 is not safe for gearbox but 75w90NS is. both can be used for diff.

regardless my diff doesn't like the 75w90NS and i'm happy with Motul Gear 300.
