I swapped my MT oil over to Redline MT-90 a little over a month ago. Honestly, I don't know what everyone is complaining about. Everything sounds fine to me. Or maybe I'm just used to it and don't notice it, as I came from a 350.

Edit: I just played crbn_fbr's video (post 18). I have never heard this clattering sound on my Z. I did on my 350, but only after putting in a lightweight flywheel.
