IN the thred he mentioned that he used cheapo GL4 oil, the oils that I'm using in the gearbox are GL4 as well. I know that few people have tried to use reline superlight and this oil doesn't have any GL rating, so I've stayed away from it.

All I can say is that I'm very happy with it right now. If something brakes I'm sure you guys will hear about it.

Cool, Hope it works out.

My 3rd and 4th changes have become notchier and im thinking about getting Nissan to check it out. It might be because the gearbox got bumped going over a bump, not sure.

Bump - How's the gearbox going, still nice and smooth? I would like to do the same.

It's still good, i've done around 500km since the change and there are no problems, I didn't drive the car for the past 3 days and drove it this morning, the changes were smooth even when cold. I don't have any problems what so ever.

I've forgot to mention that 100% of it was city traffic so a lot of gear changes. Also lately I've not been putting on a lot of KMs since I've bent suspension.

Thanks for the update, sounds like you've got the right blend.
Re: the diff, I believe it should be a GL5 blend any comment?

There's no need for a blend, but you are correct, for diff you need GL5 and for gearbox you need GL4
