Ok so spring is almost here and I've been thinking about changing out all the old fluids.

what brand or weight oil YOU guys recommend for the following (yes I searched):

Cusco RS 1.5 limited slip diff?
stock KA 5 speed trans?
brake fluid?

then things I'd like to upgrade are:
short shifter and new trans fluid
SS brake lines
rotors and pads

interior:
new carpet
reupholster front seats

brake fluid stock is dot 3.. converting to dot 5 is good to do if you race.

I'd figure do a brake flush when I upgraded to SS lines.
Then a trans flush when I install the short shifter.
And the previous owner mentioned I should do the diff. flush.
Trying to get all the stuff together so when it gets warmer out I can tackle these 3 things

I'm also curious about motor mounts, is the motor suppose to wiggle so much upon start up? Should I get stock rubber replacements or upgrade to polyurethane? any one try THESE before
