I've had the wrx 1st gear grind for about the last 6 to 8 moths so i ordered the fluids from GrimmSpeed and it WORKS :mrgreen:.  My WRX is shifting soooooo smooth :-D. I,m gonna order another case so i have it on hand for my next service. I would recommend everyone to check this out, when your next service is due.  :lol:

i was curious about the same thing...my tranny fluid was replaced when i got my tranny rebuilt less than a year ago and its already starting with the grinding and hard shifting. seems like a lot of fluid to be just a additive but if thats the case i might pick up a set for only 50 bucks :mrgreen:

There's a very big thread on nasioc about this, and recently people are saying that this mix causes accelerated wear, and the fluids do not mix properly.

The last dozen pages or so...   http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=920674

You have a price? Depending on cost, I'd be willing to.

I think 5gal of Extra-S is $150 which works out to $7.50/qt instead of $20/qt from TIC.
