    oil for gearbox and rear axle?

    im going to chanfe fluids in the whole car and what oil type should i use?

    the car is going to be punished as h*ll @ track, i think that if something breaks, then should you change it, so im not going to be afraid for use tha car. :mischeif:

    redline oils maybe? but what type?

      you need GL4 for the gearbox and GL5 for the diff IIRC - 75W 90 is fine

        Redline do stuff called MT-90 i think which is also good for the torsen.

                Mekonomen sells Red Line.

                I'm going with Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil for rear axle and MT90 for gearbox.
                The Heavy one is not so good if you plan on running it winter time.

                    I think that you can run the gearbox on heavy shockproof aswell. I remember a guy on nordicaudi running both gearbox and diff with the heavy version. He had the car for trashing on the tracks and such, worked a treat according to him. Ja alltid trevligt, vart i värmland bor du?

                            Even in the summer, when "cold" it can be difficult to find 1st gear using the Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil.

                              If he will use the car mainly for rough driving around tracks i think it will be a minor problem. Japp, tillbaka till karlstad
