Gtr Transfer Case Oil

[BMCGTR]

Anyone know how much oil the transfer case on an R33 GTR takes?

[blind_elk]

AFAIK, the transfer case (the little bulge hanging off the rear of the gearbox) doesn't take oil as such. It is fed by what amounts to A/T fluid which is stored in a reservoir located in the RHS of the boot, behind the boot lining panel.

If, on the other hand, you really mean the front differential (the little bulge that hangs off the sump), then about 1 litre of a 85w/90 gear oil should suffice.

Thanks, but I’m not sold.

Can anyone confirm this as fact?

I believe the reservoir in the boot is for the hydraulic clutch to engage

the front wheels as required. This also has to be bleed correctly to avoid

air build up.

The transfer case on the side of the gear box has a drain plug at the bottom

and a plug on the side to refill.

Well how do you think the hydraulic clutches engage the front wheels?

Through the transfer case .....

No the transfer case takes seperate fluid 1.8l ATF. I filled it via the gear selecter in the cabin but I assume there is a proper filler on the side somewhere too.

The fluid in the boot engages the transfer case but inside is a seperate fluid.

There's a square drive taper filler plug on the back face of the transfer case 'bulge'.

Thanks guys, I knew someone would know.

So Matic D can be used to fill the transfer case also?

Correct fill up to that level, the drain plug is on the side of the tranfer case( drivers side).

You can fill it from the top like Duncan said but you wont know when its full...

You can use D-matic or dextron in the tranfer case, of course Nissan will tell you to use their D-matic .
