Default Transmision, - LSD..

Hi Folks.
Im after some advice on which type of fluid to use in my LSD tranny...

The car has a Turbo [ 951 ] plate type diff fitted, that has been refurbed .

Ive used the car on approx 6-8 track days this year [ since refurb ] + its been great...

But its now beggining to get a tad noisy + it also seems to be more "aggresive"/ grabby...

Is there a fluid that will cope with the greater demads of track driving that will make it "smoother" + less "grabby"...

My car recently went into the shop to get the transmission looked at. The synchros were not smooth and the car shifted horribly. Turned out it was trans fluid that was incredibly old. The shop put Redline in the car and I can tell you it is 200% better shifting. If your transmission oil isnt shot now you probably wont notice as big a difference as I did, but the Redline is good stuff regardless. Cant comment n Amsoil although I've heard its great too, I doubt you can go worng with either.
