My r34 GTT auto transmission is slowly letting go, slipping every now and again, tiptronic deciding to not keep it in 1st / 2nd when flooring it, taking longer to shift so I’m going going flush it and replace the filter and hope it lasts a bit longer. 
 

I’ve got 10L of Penrite ATF FS at home and I’m going to use it for it unless ye completely recommend against it. 
Penrite list it as compatible.

i understand I should be using Castro Transzmax however it’s quite expensive and I already have 10L of the ATF fs.

Has anyone here used atf fs for there got or heard of anyone? Or am I silly for even considering anything other then Castrol 

Thanks for your advice

The viscosity is about right for Dexron III/Matic D.

    • All comes down to recommendations and how much you have. If you have the money, both are a great piece of mind to be done. And I believe most people would tell you to do them. Any fuel sitting in the oil may have caused degradation.  Personally,  I have reused a timing belt after sitting for 2 years whilst getting a rebuild. Didn't have any issues. Id probably dump the oil, fill with fresh, and get on your way. But, keep in mind, I'm just some guy on the internet. 
    • The 5-6hrs is get is plenty? Sometimes I even get up to 7.....
    • Some nice details on this Nismo GT-R LM by Kyosho https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/kyosho-original-1-43-bcnr33-nissan-skyline-gt-r-nismo-lm
    • Have a forged r34 using 10w60 mobile 1 running around 700 mark fly.    i only used it 200 miles since last march when oil and filter was done. Now I will be using it more often and set to change oil and throw away what I had opened from last year.   Question is, does oil setting on shelf for a year or so breakdown or even few years?   how about sitting in engine?   engine rebuild will be a lot more costly hence why I change it every 12 month and wanted to get some opinion   question 2 is around timing belt, was done 4 years or maybe 5 years ago and since car done less than 1.5k miles. Would you change it ?
    • Nice! Love to hear the new exhaust. Remember to run the car without the exhaust for shits and giggles   I got my car booked into a local exhaust shop to see if they can help with the raspy exhaust note at around 3k rpm when under heavy load for mine. I have a HKS system but also some High Flow Cats.
