Looking for Redline MT oil
Hey everyone, I was at my local Kragen last night getting a valve cover gasket for the beater Miata I just bought, so I took the time to also try and find some manual transmission/differential fluid for it. I was specifically looking for Redline MT oil, but I actually couldn't find anything but auto tranny oil from crappy brands. Can some one tell me if there are any shops in the San Francisco area that sell Redline MT oil? I know I can find it online, but I doubt it would get here in time to do the tuneup I was planning for this long holiday weekend. Thanks!
sort of OT but would anyone know of a location which carries redline closer to santa cruz/san jose? Im looking to replace the tranny fluid too, is it a super d00per hard process?

Monument Auto Parts has almost anything you want, if they don't have it, they can usually get it within a day.
I know of one in San Ramon and Pleasanton... I'm sure there's more, but I'm not sure where

Thanks for all the help guys. I ordered from Summit and I've got my fingers crossed that the package will get here by Saturday...we'll see.
For future reference "Performance Fabrication" in Redwood City stocks MTL, MT-90 and many other Redline products even though I do NOT like to promote their business.
Strangely enough most Toyota Parts departments used to have Redline products but I haven't had a Toyota for about a year now so haven't been by one. I used to get all my 'emergency' Redline at the Toyota dealer on Stevens Creek and Kiely or the one in Sunnyvale.
Failing that my friend (Speedtoys.com) can get it by the case for a pretty good price (especially with a group buy). Email orders@speedtoys.com for info.

LIC plug
SWEPCO all the way. Best quote about Redline was from an old super experienced gearbox guy, "Who thought cherry flavored was a good gear lube?" I quit using that garbage even when it was free for me.
Hit up LIC for SWEPCO. You won't be disappointed.
