Re: My TRE trans

Seriously? That Amsoil fluid is pure crap, it doesn't shift for shit. I have tried it twice, once before my tranny was rebuilt and once after. I will never touch it again, Royal Purple, Redline and Neo are all much better. I only use the Neo now. How much wear would you expect the trans to have after only 3k miles and only 11 track passes??

Its funny you say AMSoil is no good. Devin before boostin performance was tuning my car one day and he asked 1 question. who built the trans? it feels so good. He thought it was a shep trans. He was way off. My boy built the trans. What was in it the trans? It was a Stock 1990 trans with just bronze syncros and Amsoil 75W-90. I put in well over 7K+ miles in less than 1 yr on that trans. I'll put into to perspective of how I drive vs a regular DSMer! Here is how it was in 2011. My schedule is busy so while I didn't have time to drive the car it got upgrades. I don't drive my car alot. As in amount of days. But when I have the time to drive her I be so happy.... I DRIVE HER! I LOVE MY CAR!! I don't understand how most DSMers don't do anything or go nowhere when they can. I don't just be driving 1hr but hours and hours at a time like 2 to 5hrs in one day! Usually within 40 mile distances. On highway having fun, to meets, cruises! Some days putting 400-500+miles in a surrounding area. That 3K+ is actually just a few hundred miles under 5K adding in tuning etc. So trans was put in the car in late 2010 but it's really only been within like a of 4 month total period of hard hard driving. Then the 11 passes come into play. a few at 124mph but most of them at 132mph or over.
