It's still good that you changed though. I changed both my diff and trans fluid over to Redline at around 2500 miles. (I wasn't having any issues though.) Also, just in case you aren't already aware, DynaPacks are notorious for reading too high. That's just something to be aware of if you're planning to compare your baseline to readings from other makes of dynos. Nice looking Nismo, btw!
hey man! yeah, I will only compare dynapack readings with other dynapack readings. thanks!

the real indication that the oil may have gone too hot is perhaps the molten plastic lining inside the drain plug but still the opinion that it's extraordinarily stinky is from the shop guys, and they've worked on cars for a while now.
