Amsoil synthetic manual transmission gear lube 75W-90 used oil analysis

I've since switched oils, but this is useful info for anyone wanting to know what 22k interval looks like on a car with a lot of track miles.

Virgin sample:


22k mile sample with following attributes:
  • Est. 3x drift events, 4x autocross, 15x track events
  • changed at approx. 10k miles
  • no transmission grinding or shifting issues

I used AMSOIL manual transmission and differential fluids in my 2013 BRZ. Intend to swap the OEM transmission and differential fluids this weekend to AMSOIL in my 2015 BRZ.

Special thanks for sharing before and after OA results.
