Quick question: Trans/Diff Oil ?
I am changing out my clutch with a JWT clutch since I am not planning on doing anything special for a while.
I wanted to know what brand of Oil do you recommend for the transmission since I will drain it out and the Differential as well. I am pressed for time so I don't think I have time to order something and get here Tuesday. but if I had to go to a local place to get some, Autozone, Discount auto kinda places what do you recommend? also the weight and stuff would be help full.. I typed "Best Transmission Oil" in search but couldn't find much |
redline oil is good for the trans and diff. you should be able to get it at your local auto parts store too.

I use redline oil. Use the GL5 in the rear end and GL4 in the transmission. Without heading over to the shop I couldn't tell you which one is which. I'm pretty sure I run MT90 in my trans which is a little thicker than stock but I don't drive the car in the winter. I don't remember what I used on the diff for weight. I think there is a thread about it on here and I posted what I run. It works really well. Very smooth shifting.

Ah, People used to mix them to get the thickness we need but now that I checked their site Redline makes the proper one: MT85. It's gl4 in the proper oem weight for the transmission.
75w90 gear oil from redline is what I use in the differential. GL5 and proper weight. Summitracing.com has them in stock at a good price. I think you need just over 3 bottles for the transmission and just over 2 for the differential. I always keep extra on hand so I do'nt really pay attention to how much it takes when I change the fluids. |
Yeah I agree with redline it's all I've ever used on my cars. Just make sure you get the right weight and gl type

I use Motul 300 in the tranny and Nissan OEM fluid in the diff.
