Seems it has a lot to do with the additive package. More info from Bobstheoilguy:

obviously some usage tests and experimentaion are called for. I'll be the guinea pig.

Yeah I saw the sulfur-phosphorous mentioned on the description page so that is what had me concerned as it is pretty common place in GL-5 oils. I guess you'll find out if the inhibitors due their job

Nippon Oil Co. is the largest in Japan. I'm assuming they wouldn't formulate and market this as a transmission lubricant if they hadn't covered their bases. Sure shifts nice!

Steve,

Glad to hear you like the Eneos gear oil. It certainly made my 350Z shift better. I guess I'm going to have to wait until I break my 370Z in to switch.

I just changed my tranny oil for the second time. Both times with Redline MT90. For some reason the first time did not feel so smooth, it felt kinda notchy. I just redid about an hour ago with the same stuff, now it feels like butter.

did you fill to the same level both times? if so, I bet its just that there is some old fluid mixed in the first time and the combination is not as good.
