Don't know if he changed the fluid in his Z yet, not to mention he may also have a 6MT in the Z.

Amsoil J matic works great in the Z, i've supplied it for a few guys in the Nevada Z group.

S-matic is the new J-matic. I think changing fluid more often is better than picking an alternative brand, just for the heck of it. Is Amsoil and/or Redline that much cheaper?
