I'm doing this whole autocross thing and I've noticed a few things on my first run. I had power steering cavitation and poor brake response.

My solutions are Axiss Ultimate front and rear pads, S/S Clutch Lines and S/S Brake Lines. Now my next question is I'd like to go with new fluids as well, and a S2K buddy turned me to this produced called ATE Super Blue. It has a really high flash point compared to regular store bought dot 3, but I've never heard of it. I went to a local Bap Geons and they carried it on the shelf and I asked the clerk about it and he just shrugged. The price isn't bad either its $12 bucks for 1 liter, So anyone hear any bad/good things on this or run it in their cars?

Also they wont order the transmission fluid I'd like, I'd like to get my hands on Redline MT90 but no one around here I knows carries it but, if they do it would be cheaper to buy it online and I really don't want to wait. But while at this store a buddy of mine that drives a X-Runner with a roots said he swapped out his trans fluid with this Amsoil 75w90. Anyone run this either? Thanks for your time, and please good or bad I'd like to hear it all.

 

ATE Super Blue is great stuff.
I use it in all my cars.
The brakes feel better; feels firmer with better response.
You alternate with ATE TYP 200.
One is blue and the other is gold colored, making it easy for when you need to bleed/flush the brake lines.

I've been running Amsoil Severe Gear 75w90 and it needs to warm up for the shifter to feel better.
I would prefer it over the MT90 that I used before, but I don't think you could go wrong either way.

 

Sweet, glad to see people have heard of it. I've never gotten into fluid myself and now I'm entering a new world. LOL Thanks, by chance anyone know how much am I going to have to buy?

 

If you're gonna race go with Motul Gear 300 for your tranny. That stuff is the best, true, synthetic gear oil you can buy.

 

I'm not sure this place I'm going will have it, and most places wont order or special order fluids. I would like to get the trans flushed and oil changed tomorrow.. Might do it up. and when I do my s/s lines do a complete DIY for install, flush and bleed...

 

Today I finally got time to change my trans oil and oil change. Well the transmission shifts are smoother and feels so much better. It didn't take much to do and it was super easy. Just make sure you don't fully open the top after you've opened the bottom. But its was an easy thing to do.

 

amsoil 75-90w will be fine...we run it in my racecar that twist 7000+ all the time and it holds up

 

I got lines to hook up too but my new brake pads didn't come in the mail today... Sucks, also I found out my passanger front tire is on the verge of blowing out, I guess I hit a pothole and it cracked my rim really bad and took a chunk out of my tire.. Going to cost something to fix, But its holding air now.
