Also, just to clarify....I never recommended anything to be honest. I gave out what Im using in the evo and why. The MR 6 speed has a weak point of failure on track and thats the 4th gear tooth. It will shear and let go once it overheats on track conditions. The syntorq is the only one Ive found that doesnt turn to crap after a track day. I stated thats whats going in my girls subie, but I never said you should put it in yours. Like dean said, and I totally agree, they are different beasts. The syntorq might be more in line to the 6 speed oil used in the STI. Honestly I dont know, which is why I am on these forums, to learn. Girlfriend bought a subie so I need to pick up what I can to help her since Im an evo tech sponge. I know the diaqueen will work well because its specifically designed for hypoid gears and LSD's and meets the weight and GL specifications in the owners manual of her car as well. Also, thats the same oil used in the evo 5mt, so I wouldnt doubt it would work well in her trans as well. The 6 speed evo is the only one that calls for "Mitsubishi Super Diaqueen 75w85" so I like my pick with the syntorq as it matches the weight and GL spec for that as well. Thats all, not really trying to start a war but honestly theres some of you that come off quite smug, and Mary has already told me she is about done posting over here because she feels unwelcome.
