Issues Getting Getrag Fluid R34 Gtr

[kila32]

Hey guys just a quick one, I have been using Castrol Tranzmax Z Fluid in the gearbox, normally just go to peps and just order it but this time they said that they need the gearbox number to order it?? They said something about having to confirm the gearbox number with nissan 1st due to a number of stolen boxes. Can anyone shed some light on this please.

Hi KILA32,

Tell them it's for a Commo.

It's just Dextron III trans fluid, not Nissan specific. They use this stuff in trucks and busses too.

That's the biggest load of crap I've heard.

Would have told them to just sell it to me, or I'm going to walk and buy else where from now on.

They are an auto shop, not the police.

Actually, wasn't there a case of some gearboxes going missing from nissan a while ago? Or am imagining this?

Yep they have plenty in stock

the story you were told makes absolutely no sense. maybe report it to the store manager

transmax Z is not a Nissan fluid, it is a fluid that can be used in nissans or other suitable vehicles

Will get some from super cheap.

Remember mate, it is your money you are spending, so spend it wisely. If something doesn't feel right, or you have doubts, walk away. There are other places where you can get the same thing. A business exists to make money, why should you give them your money when they are stuffing you around?

[kila32]

Yeah true that, just can't believe they made up that crap, no issues getting some in another store.

Did the salesman look like Vladimir Putin?

He probably needed numbers for his stolen box, lol

I'm using Royal purple syncromax in my Getrag
