For those running motorsports orientated AW's is a change in oil viscosity recommended? Going to be replacing mine soon and interested to know if racers deviate from factory and what brand you choose.
Most people I've spoken to have recommended Mogul so far.

Not a Motorsport AW but I've been running the 'Redline lightweight shockproof' oil. Lots of guys in the US seem to be using it so it must be pretty good.

I'm running the same in mine and it's only a track car. The TRD LSD is fine with it too.
See ya
