Cool Extra-S
I'm thinking about trying to get a 5 gallon drum of Extra-S from Subaru so I can change my transmission fluid Rob said he'd be down for some if some one else local wanted some also we could probably make this happen.

I've never seen it in individual bottles. Some dealers will bottle it from the 5 gallon bucket and sell it at obscene prices.

The stuff is good, but not magical enough for me to bother trying to get when other fluids just as good are easily available in appropriate quantities.

But kinda sorta semi interested lol

Is that actually Extra-S though? I know Subaru sells regular gear oil but in the past people have stated they needed to special request the Extra-S.

Redline was making me grind 5th gear. And the rear diff was noisy.
