There is an active thread about fluids on nissan silvia. Im going to get penrite sin fully synthetic 75W90 for the gear box and the 80W?? for the diff. (Coming up to 90,000km)

You can get redline stuff from ebay from an online wholesaler -- but it seems too cheap. I wouldnt know if its the right shapped bottle with a fake sticker on it or not.

Oh and check how much of it you need too.. for the blu200 its about 1.5L for the gearbox and 1.2L for the diff. Ill get 2L.

As for getting penrite sin oils.... Save up your $$$ and then go online and register your email address with Repco. You get a 20% discount voucher for your next visit. Im going to spend a few hundred on Oils (engine diff box), radiator fluid, sparkplugs if they have the ngk, and maybe oil filters.

Are you thinking about Limslip 85W140?

As for the original poster, if you are going to get an oil for the diff, then it is probably a good idea to get a oil specifically made for diff applications and that is where the Limslip oil comes in (hense the name).

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.

      You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.

      Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
