Hello
I was wondering if anyone uses Redline oils in their 370z's? I have a 2012 Nismo, I was going to use MT-85 75W85 GL-4 Gear Oil in the transmission, and 80W140 GL-5 Gear Oil. Does anyone have any recommendations or concerns using these products? Thanks!!!

I have the MT-85 in my transmission and the 75/90 in the diff.

No problems at all. The transmission oil made the trans shift better as well.
