Motul Gear 300 is great stuff.

My 33 had 34,000km on it when I bought it, definitely genuine as interior, engine bay and underbody looked brand new. 5 page inspection report confirmed that odometer was consistent with the car's condition. Therefore, I can safely assume that it had the standard (8 year old) nissan fluids in the gearbox and diff, and the old fluids weren't flogged out yet (the service interval for gbox and diff is every 40,000km).

After putting Gear 300 in the gearbox and diff (viscous LSD is a sealed unit so that's no problem), I found that cold shifting was much improved. The old oil was occasionally a bit graunchy and not really nice to drive until up to temp. With the new oil it shifted very well when cold - more slowly than warm but that's only to be expected. When warmed up, it's even better. The old oil was OK when warm but the new stuff is still an improvement.

Cliffs: Gear 300 ftw.

Motul 300 gear oil is top notice stuff. Similar to Redline. Esther based, GL5 rated and high sheer capability.

I use Redline MT90 in the GB which is similar only as i get it much cheaper then RRP - see my sig links. Today I flushed the GB on my 33, 4 Quarts for less than $80! RRP would be double. .

I also use the redline 75W90 gear oil in the diff, great products with great results. I also have the stock VLSD

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
