Default Redline Tranny fluid

Not a tech question...but I figured this would get answered here quicker than free4all

Who locally(Tampa area) sells the Redline Tranny fluid and oils?

Welcome to the club.
BTW isn't it about time some aftermarket company produces some stronger affordable syncro sets for Honda's?

I dont know...I was told again today..put redline tranny fluid in and it should help the grind in 3rd? I need some suggestions...I just got the motor and tranny and now I have to figure out what the fuck to do with this bitch already....I will eventually lose 3rd right? It is a quick short grind into 3rd...nothing long and dreadful sounding...but doesnt grind downshifting from 4th? How much cash am i looking at if i wanted someone to drop the tranny and put in a new 3rd gear?

sorry to cut in the post, but why are synthetics bad john? i've been running Mobile 1 for 6 years in the accord and havent had any problems yet. if they are bad i would defanately like to stop using synthetics but i've been told that once you go synthetic you cant go back to regular oil.

I also have a stack of $20 bills in front of me, therefore 20>50 and 20>100 and 20>1000. $20 bill FTW.

not sure what he feels on synthetic motor oil in the crank case..but i think he was talking about no synthetics in the tranny.
Hopefully i didnt make a mistake when i chose to go synthetic castrol in my motor?
