Syncroshift is fine. You'll have to change it out frequently though

Not to be a jerk but if you don't know where the fluid go you should have it done. Wrong fluid = more money spent fixing the damages.

^ He has fluid that'll work just fine. Pretty obvious where the drain and fill bolts are.

Paying someone to change fluids in your sports car=FTL
