Default Any known problems using Amsoil ATF Tranny fluid???

I just recently bought a 99' GS3, my tranny doesn't pull that hard up until 2500 RPM. Now, I'm thinking about flushing it and replacing the fluid with the Amsoil Universal ATF tranny fluid. Are there any known issues with the transmissions of a 98-00 GS3 ???

For members, who has this type of fluid in their tranny please send me your input. Maybe I just have a bad tranny but I wanna drain the fluid first before I make any assumptions. Any members here who owns a 98-00 GS3 experience any lag on their tranny? Your input is much appreciated

...I believe I spek for everyone here that all stock second generation GS's have this lag that you speak of. I am using Amsoil ATF and it is great! It is also Toyota Type IV compatible so there will be no issues that it will hurt you tranny. It is a little expensive though...GL!

FYI...get a high(er) stall torque converter to solve your "lag" problems; search and you will find!
