I have heard from "old timers" how it looked like glitter in the oil from all the wear metals. I don't think we are nearly that bad off with modern vehicles, though.

In short--does OP need it? Of course not. Would it hurt anything? Of course not. Could it help? Possibly, but likely not to a noticeable extent.

I am having all my fluids (diff/trans/engine) changed over to Redline synthetic this morning and putting a Veruspeed filter on (many people will argue over filter/oil, but I doubt anyone says nearly ANYTHING you could buy is worse than the OEM parts that came on the car).

Why? I want MT85 in the trans, and I want to put a full synthetic in the diff. I have heard that Red Line lowers temps by around 20* on average. With a VLSD, heat is THE enemy.

Again...not necessary, but certainly not a bad decision.
