Replacing driveshaft seal - suggest upgarded MTF?
Hey.
Completed an auto to manual swap this past spring and installed a Quaife LSD. Swapped in an S40B000 transmission for a d16z6. I knew one of the driveshaft seals was on its way out and after the last auto-x event it finally gave up.
I'm using Honda MTF. I was considering upgrading. Some swear Honda MTF is the only fluid to use in a manual Honda transmission. Some others (in particular one VERY experienced Honda transmission expert) says he's using half Honda MTF and half Torco MTF in his d-series with a Quaife LSD. I've heard of some people using as loving Amsoil synthetic MTF. In my last manual transmission I used GM Synchromesh Friction Modifier for a grinding 3rd gear which helped immensely.
What do you suggest?
Thanks.
