I'm trying to figure out what oil would be best for Tennessee weather.
I changed the trans fluid this weekend along with putting in the mtec shift springs. The springs definitely help everything feel more precise. Now the fluid has seemed to help some in the cold but it's still not as smooth going into second as the others, but it doesn't bother me.

Lol I think I met that guy at taco bell a while back I was tellin him how I was lookin into a BRZ and he looked pretty excited about me getting it. Hahaha I'm also amazed as to how uncommon the twins are in this area. I thought I'd see a bunch of kids driving the FRS cars around.

Thanks for the info about transmission fluid, guys. I still have no idea what's best for tennessee weather, though. I guess y'all agree that your new fluid is better than OEM in every way, right?

Yes. I've always had good luck with red line in previous cars. And others have stated good things with it to. So it'll most likely be what I use
