motul 300v... but i'm childish like that

[iamhe77]

Currently, Redline 10w40. Change every 10,000kms.

The engine responds to it the best out of all oils I have put in there over the past 3+ years.

I used to change at 5000km intervals and have also used Motul 300v, Mobil 1, Fuchs, Amsoil, Shell Helix Ultra, Penrite Syn, Royal Purple.

Make sure you use a decent filter too (Veruspeed NIS-004 FTW! )

[Walf]

Im using Motul atm, sounds like redline is on the list for next change

[Kam-80]

Motul 8100 X-cess 5w40 daily, swapped out for Motul 300V (10w40 blended with 15w50) for track.

Pretty sure mine has Royal Purple in it this time...

[GeNOS]

i just got some purple for mine

im assuming they use the same filter as teh 350zs (in the 350gts)???

how often does the gearbox oil need doing?

[Kam-80]

how often does the gearbox oil need doing?

I just do mine whenever the gearbox starts feeling notchy...make sure you use a GL4 gearbox oil though.

[GeNOS]

thats for manual ?

[Kam-80]

Yeah for the manual.

[Dan85]

how often do u guys change your transmision ? fluid (mine is auto btw)

[iamhe77]

Every 40,000.

Have used Nulon 100% Synthetic ATF for the past year and a half or so.

Is compatible with Nissan Matic J oil. Gear changes feel fantastic under heavy or light load.

Have found that the PWR 6cyl trans cooler are pretty damn effective and help our RE5RO5A transmissions from getting too hot

[mosoto]

Gulf Western Sougi S6000. It's a classV fully Synthetic oil @ $80 for 5litres. There's a thread on oils worth reading

Quick note for those interested: the Davies Craig trans cooler kit (available at supacheap) is (usually) significantly cheaper than the PWR branded one. If you pull the DC sticker off, underneath you'll find a PWR etching: same cooler, waaaay cheaper.

[GeNOS]
