I really hate the idea of mixing fluids, but Phil of Andrewtech is all over Nasioc recommending 3 quarts of Redline Shockproof LW mixed with one quart of Motul Gear 300 75W-90 for the 5MT. He says he spoke to Redline and this is a good mix. His logic is that the the Redline is almost perfect except that it poors poorly in cold temps. The Motul fluid is too keep it from getting too thick. If you don't want to bother with Motul, you can use Valvoline Synthetic or your favorite synthetic 75W-90.
