my understanding is 4.5-5l for the engine but not sure on diff and gearbox. Just check the dipstick afew times ..don't overfill, it's easier to top up a little :yes:

as for spark plugs .. everyone seems to be using/recommending NGK coppers, BCPR7ES I think .. or 6ES. I was told to use 7s on last service but I'm gonna try 6s this time. On last service the 7s were gapped to .8mm (stock coils) and the car was misfiring badly on idle and low rpm, regapped to 1mm and it was OK. Not sure why mine misfired on .8mm gap when everyone seems to recommend .8mm gap but yeah that's what happened.

My GTT makes 190rwkw or so on 11psi so I'm curious to hear what everyone else thinks is the right heat range for spark plugs (GTT here too). I do mostly short trips so I'm worried the 7s might foul up and the cars performance with the 7s seems to be different every day.

Manual Trans Gear Oil according to Manual (an English Owner's Manual)

2.4 litres for RB25DE

1.8 litres for RB26DETT

For the Diff, any oil you use, you keep filling it until it overflows.

Can't believe how long it took me to search for an answer on the manual transmission and LSD oil capacity. Just filled it today (R34 GT-T). For future reference:

Manual transmission: Redline LWSP ~3.5L

LSD: Castrol Limited Slip 90 ~1.6L

:happy:

    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.  
    • Nice, let me know how you find the 98 tune
