how much gearbox oil do i use for an EMPTY rb25 box??

cheers

Just changed mine yesterday, took 3.5 litres, I buy it from precision diff on port rd, take in my empty bottle and they fix me up!

[heslo]

Yeah Adrian, it's about 3.5L, make sure you get the Redline Lightweight Shockproof, it's expensive but beleive me it makes a HUGE difference. That's what I ran in that box before and it was silky smooth

[Madaz]

i heard redline shockproof for jap cars is rubbish

[heslo]

Nope Good shit

Cool sig by the way, will be adding it soon!

I cant comment about redline oil, although alot of people rave about it, but with gear oils you need a happy medium between thin oil to help the synchro's and a thicker oil to help protect the gears, so I would suggest run as thicker oil as your synchro's can handle! once your gears have been overheated your looking at big cash to overhaul the box!

There are many who claim the same.

General comments are : it quietened down my box or improved gear selection but ultimatly the box shat its self and the mechanic said dont use redline.

I have not used it so I dont speak from personal experience.

who's the douchebag who told adrian to put 7 litres in his gearbox...???

The Specified amount is actually 2.8 litres, 3 litres is fine.

[Cubes]

WTF 7ltrs...

That would be one expensive 'attempted' fill if he were to run Gear 300. :S

[Ryanrb25]

yea lol, He was smart enough to get a second opinion before attempting.

lol 7L is a fair descent amount

[heslo]

[Matty 31]

lol

had to do a double take on oil amount for the patrol when i did an oil change. the 4.2 diesel takes 12.5 litres and 2 oil filters, the 2.8 turbo diesel only takes 8 litres and one filter LOL

anyone gets bored, im goin to be pulling the 31 to bits...............gimmie a hoy and come on round

[craig R33]

on friday night, all smashed up, badly, amd he is 99% sure it was my old one

what a dick head.

im pretty devo, but oh wells. i still got the money from it atleast.

[Ryanrb25]

That's like my old 31 man, poored heaps of my time n effort and money into it only to have the next dude write it off out at mallalla.

[Madaz]

yeah Ryan but least the guy you sold the 31 had the decency to take it to a track

and Craig at least it wasn't yours when a mishap happened

[Ryanrb25]
