GT Phayer Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I have an OEM LSD gearbox and was just wondering what oil i need to use with it ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oilman Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) HiYou need a 75w-90 for the gearbox and here are the ones we have.http://www.opieoils....673-75w-90.aspxIf you want to go for the best, the Millers CRX 75w-90 NT, Motul Gear 300, Gulf Competition and Millers TRX are ideal for the gearbox. The Castrol Syntrax, Motul Motylgear and Fuchs Gear Syn are all decent alternatives.CheersTim Edited February 22, 2012 by oilman Quote Link to post Share on other sites

oilman Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Hi DrewThe MT90 is probably going to be 100% fine, but the LSD may make it break down fairly quickly, so will need replacing quite often. Out of the Gulf and TRX, I'd go for the Gulf.CheersTim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drew 007 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Awsome, thanks Tim really appreciated buddy, i havnt got a diff so would you still recommend the gulf oil buddy? as i really need to get my order sorted asap as im sorting my clutch out on the 3rd of march. PS, which one out of the two gulf oils will be best for me mate please? The Gulf Competition 75w-90 or the Gulf Competition Racing Oil 75w-90 LS Edited February 23, 2012 by drew 007 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oilman Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Hi DrewSorry, looking at the time I posted, I might have been half asleep and thought I was replying to EP Bredrin. The MT90 is spot on for yours, can't fault it at all, but if you want Gulf, go for the non-LS version.CheersTim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
