Sorry for the lack of searching. Driving to the shop and gotta top off the trans very quickly before leaving. T-minus 1 hour.
My trans has basically brand new Nissan fluid in it..but when i did my clutch, some snuck out.
I also have some MTL/MT90 mix.
Any reason why i shouldn’t run the redline mix, mixed with 80% oem fluid?

MTL equally mixed with MT90 is MT85. It's the viscosity Nissan recommends, but there's really no data on mixing it with another lubricant. Since you're just topping off the tranny fluid and not running it in a race, it's hard to imagine it damaging anything.
You might be the first one who can report back after you drain it out...
