R32 GTR Fluid compartment list

[Voodoo_ChildR32]

I don't know if these cars take dot 4 stock, but dot 4 isnt compatible with dot 5. Just an FYI

I run dot 4 synthetic in my brakes and clutch, works fine. Dot 5.1 is compatible as it is not silicone based like regular dot 5.

Didn't even know about 5.1, thanks for the heads up!

How is your car running? I email redline and the mt90 is what they recommend for syncros going out.

I plan on changing my tranny fluid with Redline MT90 75W90. I have bought 5 bottles (5L) which should be enough. Wondering if anyone else is running this any how its been, I have a sometimes grind in 4th and would like to get rid of it..

let me know

thanks

I'm going to replacing all fluids in my car and I'm getting mixed results from this thread...
for tranny fluid I was going to use redline shockproof, people are saying its not good for it????


what transmission and diff fluid is best?


Does anyone have an updated list of what fluids to use? it seems really back and forth in here.

Just use redline MT-90 for a stock box, unless you have a dog set in there, then run the shockproof. Its too thick of an oil for a synchro box (and corrodes the brass)

Engine: Redline 10W-40
ETS side: Nissan Matic D ATF
T-case: Mobil gen purpose ATF
Gearbox: heavy shockproof (dog engagement)
Front diff: Castrol 80W-90
Rear diff: Redline 75W-90

Thats what I use anyways.

Just picked up my r32 GTR and was wondering what would be best as far as engine oil I was planning on going a Mobil 1 10w-30

I'd go for a higher weight, especially if you're living in a hot climate like TX. I run 10W-40 on my street driven car, takes a little bit to get up to temp, but the car seems to like it.
