What are you talking about? Mixing ATF in with you gear fluid? I dont understand.

ATF or Motor oil is ok in early cars (believe 90-91.5). The used a diffrent synchro material (crappier) that works better with atf or motor oil. This is what i got from jon at tre when he had to use the older synchros material on a jdm gearset. Not installed yet to let you know how it feels, sorry.

Not recommended. Go with Pennzoil Synchromesh.
