    Thanks for the wise information once again, I never noticed that line of shockproof oil...I went on Red Line's official website to get more information on that product...Now I know what you mean, and come to think of it, on most forums the word shockproof was on there quite often...Ill be...

    So for a N/A Integra tranny with spirited driving and some VTEC engagement as well...Red Line wouldn't be overkill? I'm only running around 200HP and just under 150 pounds of torque... I just saw some comments on some Honda and Integra forums about Red Line being too much for my car and they...

    Yeah, Ive seen alot of Amsoil gearbox conversations on some online forums too...I find most forums boils down to Honda MTF, Red Line MTL and the GM synchromesh and sometimes like I mentioned, even Amsoil... It's just really confusing, because Ill get the odd comment here and there about Red...

    Who doesn't like to use VTEC? Hahahaha, well I am so glad I got in contact with you, I was almost going to buy that 5W20...Thanks for the help. Is there any other brand name oils you would recommend for my car or would Red Line be #1? Another thing I meant to ask you...Do you know anything...

    Hey Tim, thanks for the reply...I was looking on the Red Line ebsite yesterday and stumbled upon a 5W20 engine oil, it said it was ideal for Acura/Honda, Mazda, Scion for the import section...When I looked at the 5W40 it said it was ideal for Audi, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Porsche, VW... So what's...

    Hey Tim, I thank you very much for all the help...As of April 2012, 5W-40 Redline it is... I heard of a gearbox oil that fixes a tranny with slight grinding...Is this true? I think it's like GM Syncrotech or something like that, I have no idea...Would Redline gearbox oil be a better choice...

    Hey Tim, how are you? Martin here again, thanks for the informative reply. I like how you answered the mechanic part in a good fashion haha... I know you mentioned earlier that the Redline oil was ester based, so therefor it will coat the inside of the engine so that air won't get in while the...

    Hello once again Tim, Well, I'll be storing the car in November, like I had mentioned...I did the oil change on the 1st week of August with that Mobil 1 15W-50...So, correct me if I'm wrong, I don't have to change the oil before storing, only once I take it out of storing right? I'll try to...

    Hey Tim, Thanks so much for the quick replies. I will be using 5W-40 as soon as I'm due for my change up...It's true that it gets quite cold here in Canada and it can also get quite hot. I'll take a look around if I can get Amsoil or Redline in my area. Thanks so much for the suggestions. I'm...

    Engine and tranny oil change.

    Hey HASNIC, I know what you mean...It's not a lot of $$$ and it can save the motors life. I mean the motor is the heart of the car. I rather spend $60 on oil change than $2000-$5000 on motor lol! As for the genuine Honda oil filter, is that what most people go with, or should I be going...

    Hey Tim, Martin here again, thanks for the reply, I appreciate it very much. What would the Mobil 1 15W-50 be good for??? Hot hot places in the southern States or like exotic cars and what not? But I will surely go with the 5W-40 for sure...Should I discard the oil I have in the engine right...

    Engine and tranny oil change.

    Hey again HASNIC, I should change the oil just for storing you mean? Wouldn't that be a pure waste of perfectly good oil??? I mean by changing it before storing and right after storing...I might of understood you wrong but correct me if not. As for the genuine Honda oil filter, is that what...

    Engine and tranny oil change.

    Right on, well for now I'll stick with this oil for sure...But when I get to my next oil change, I'll switch it up with some 10W-40 maybe. We'll see when the time comes. I was going to ask you...How many KM's do you drive until you change your oil with synthetic of course??? Some *** say you...

    Engine and tranny oil change.

    Hey HASNIC, Thanks for the reply. That's exactly what I thought...It might be a lil thick for winter but I'm storing it in November-April...That's our winter here in New-Brunswick, this car will only be driven in the spring, summer and fall. The coldest it will get is around 10 degrees celsius...

    Engine and tranny oil change.

    I went with 15W-50...There was a couple of guys that told me it was good to go a lil thick since it's a performance motor...But I was just telling myself "performance motor to what extent?" I mean, it says on the oil jug itself that it's made for performance vehicle...But I'm guessin' they are...
