gear oil

[celica_tommo]

Insted of buying the expensive injection setup, you can easily just get a funnel and some clear plastic tube from the local hardware store for about $3 all up.

Use some 100mph tape to make sure theres a good seal between the tube and the funnel.

Did it the other day on a VR-4, worked mint.

All these fancy oils arn't necicary in my opinion, I just use average garden variety gearbox oil, works mint!

or even better, go to the $2 shop an buy one of those syphon things with the little pump in the middle takes a little while but it's really easy and no mess

80W140 is a bit thick to be using isn't it sergei?

80W90 Castrol EPX or 75W90 Valvoline Duragear GL5 should be fine. The Valvoline is $25 or so for a 4 litre pack, and it's good stuff.

Something around the 80 mark should be fine, be it 80 or 80W90. You'll find stuff marked as manual transmission fluid and have an SAE rating on it of around 80. Thats the stuff you're after

I use Castrol Syntrax ($$$) , very good oil, very expencive ~$90 for 4lt

I've also get Castrol Syntrax 75w90 in my 111.
Its the only gear oil Fraser cars will use. It improved my gear changes. It is expensive @ $90 for 4L. An ae111 takes 2.5L. I have a spare 1.5L at home you can have for $20
