Coolant And Tranny Fluid in our climate

So what do you guys use?

I was thinking about:

Coolant: Going with a mixture of water and Red line Water Wetter with Corrosion Ressistance...do you think this would hurt my system in the long run? The water will be distilled. I'm a little worried about the corrosion especially in the aluminum radiator but i know that water works better as a coolant than regular antifreeze.

Tranny (5MT): Either a mixture of Redline 75W90NS and Redline No Shock or Royal Purple...anybody used these?

Next time do a search Blake! You have an ALUMINUM radiator, therefore corosion is not as big of an issue as it would be in a steel radiator. Just read that post and use what it says.
