Dont use it myself, but all I've heard were good things. Depending on opinions and recommendations on this thread, I may go change it.

I used reline mt90 gear oil and its great. The shifting is much smoother.

I highly recommend Red Line MT-90. It really smooths out the shifts, particularly in colder weather.

It's a different brand of fluid. They also make oil. Maybe the reason I've been stoked on RP is because I haven't tried it and been a little bit underwhelmed like I was with MT/90(and Mobil 1) . I put Redline in my P5 and Mobil1 in my Miata, and neither one felt any more smooth or...anything then OEM fluid


I think it'll be either AMSOIL or RP for the RX-7.

Never heared anything bad about redline, but have heard bad about royal purple.
I'll try to find it and post a link so you can make your own decisions.
