Red Line Racing Type-F ATF!!

5000km ago, (at 70k) i replaced the factory ATF Z1 in my transmission with some Racing Type-F stuff from Red Line and it definitely rock!! Shifts are faster then with the Z1, maybe because the thicker oil is increasing the pressure but they are not harsh at all! With the Z1 my transmission was feeling like it was slipping! Now it feels like the clutches are holding strong!! I also did a semi-flush at something like 40k (with Z1) because the oil was starting to become black!! Maybe the Red-Line will hold up the abuse better... Well see!! I'm still in the process of seeing if it will break something so if you decide to do like me i'm not responsible for possible damages... But i think you could be surprised!!

From Red line Website!
  • Similar to a Type F fluid, featuring even higher viscosity and no friction modifiers
  • Produces faster shifts, quicker lock-up, better converter efficiency at high temps
  • Enhanced extreme-pressure additives provide 5-times better film strength than petroleum ATFs
  • Reduced clutch and gear wear compared to petroleum ATFs
  • Satisfies GL-4 gear oil requirements

Had to do a flush today (80.5k) because of an unrelated to oil issue... (Oil cooler line failure!) God i miss my Type-F oil... Honda did a complete flush after replacement of the faulty line and the granny slippery gear engagement is back as well!! I got used to the faster shifts that the Race Type-F gave me so now it just got boring!!
