Nice!
Im interested in how that SSP gold fluid hold up.

I am too and I guess they just changed the name of the red fluid to gold and stopped adding the red dye so the dealerships wouldn't notice the change lol

Yeah, I dont have first hand experience with SSP SST Fluid & have heard TC-SST only takes Dia queen SSTF & SSP fluid doesnt work or malfunction?
Maybe you can shed some lights on that. Keep us posted, Im sure everybody will be interested in different option for Dia Queen SST fluid.

I thought the ssp gold fluid was for daily driving/track use, and the red fluid was for hardcore track use?

[RG-RA]

here is the quote from their site and i thought the gold and red were both different too and when i called to ask cause i couldnt find the red anywhere on the site they told me that red is now called gold for reason stated above also this is the same fluid they are using in their time attack evo x mr so i hope it works out good lol...

"SSP Pro Gold is a high-tech transmission fluid developed from the latest base oil and additive technology. Created especially for the newer DCT transmissions, Pro Gold exceeds clutch friction and wear protection requirements for all DCT transmissions. Pro Gold fluid is a extreme performance synthetic fluid suitable for use in all DCT set ups, and is specially formulated to protect your transmission in daily driving to full Race applications."

also this is just the pic from their site

well all is done now, new cooler feels AMAZING!!! you can feel it pull the air through and throw it right out the tire well through the vents! new filter and fluid i cant really vouch for yet because its only been in for about 4 hours and i havent got it to the track but the install was easy and looks good too!

How's the shifting? Granted, I probably well never take my car to the track but even in rush hour traffic I can imagine the AMS transmission cooler would help.

well i only drove the car easy for a few hours to make sure all the fluid got worked in now im going to check for leaks again since its been sitting for a while. then going for a drive and gonna give it hell lol and see how long it takes to brake boost and get the slow down light to come on(simulating track launch) but i will let you know what i think and give this thread a bump when i update the OP

Hey Rg-Ra, how long did the job take total hours? With installing the cooler and replacing the oil? If you don't mind. Adam
