In my tomei i use Castrol SAF-XA 75W160 i think its about $27 a litre. I originally used some motul stuff however my 2way was really noisy and clunk heaps when i got told it would be one of the quieter 2way's. Also alot of my friends who drift all use penrite limslip which ive been told is good for much cheaper

Anyone using redline shockproof heavy?

Have used it in previous cars yes. Its the ultimate in shear load protection...

If you really want the low down on what Redline product for what application, give Tim a ring at WestRacing on 08 94461913. He's full bottle.

On the oil change interval. Well - how long is a piece of string I guess. Depends how hard its driven and what parts are getting loaded the most.

A 6 sec Drag car throws away the oil after one race meet (or more!) even if the oil is untouched.

For me, I'd prob check the diff oil at 5,000km and 10,000km to see how its fairing. If it looks good I'd be happy to leave diff oil in for 20,000 to 30,000km no probs if its a good oil.

A race car probably wouldn't...

Let's face it though,

No one ever did any harm changing their oil a little more often than needed. So if you can afford to change it more often - do it.

    • Nope, still smaller rear, put on the 4inch exhaust and picked up power everywhere, ended up just shy of 800rwhp.   Didn't seem to be hitting any walls either, so perhaps could have pushed for more but all maybes and the fish that got away etc etc. 
    • Races cars don't care for VIN either...
    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it
