tranny and differential fluid

Hey guys,
This weekend me and a few buddies are going to do some maintenance work on my g with 80,000+ miles on it. We are going to flush and refill the tranny and differential fluids, only problem is I dont know what fluids to use. Does anyone have any recommendations? If not I plan to run to Nissan or Infiniti and get OEM stuff. Thanks!

Alot of people here use Amsoil SVG for the diff, for the tranny since your AT I would stick with the Nissan Matic-S

Orlando Infiniti said a simple drain and refill is fine. Flush isn't necessary for the transmission. Well, at least for the manual tranny.

do a full flush on the auto every 50k miles at least. i do it every year or 25k miles. its not bad but the trans def gets a lot wear.

I was at Slowboy Racing last weekend for the meet and they changed my Trans. and Diff. with Redline. After 1 week-shifts much smoother with no issues. Also not as notchy.
I read up on people with good and bad experiences but in the end just took the plunge. So far so good.
