5MT Fluid: Synthetic or Extra S

Just to follow up on this, I replaced my trans fluid with the "high performance gear oil" and nothing blew up. It definitely improved my shift quality, but I still get a few "ticks" going from 2nd to 3rd. Otherwise, I'd say this is definitely Extra-S.

According to what my parts guy said at the dealer, that's the new name for Extra-S, and it comes in qt bottles now.

 

Here's the reply I got when I asked if he could get Extra-S.

 

I just looked into this, they stopped doing the 20l cans of it. Now they offer only quarts and call it high performance 75-90 gear oil. the new part # is SOA427V1700 for the qt. it retails at $10.23 per qt and I can sell it to you for $8.18 per qt.

there is also a note saying that I have to get it drop shipped from a third party supplier, so im not sure if there is a minimum purchase quantity. Ill have to check with Subaru on that and get back to you

305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).  CHECK your oil, these cars use it.
