Andrew & Carl, your desks are too clean, lol................don't you guys do any work.

I'm too embarrassed to show mine, there's paper work & tapes everywhere at the moment

lol i did not show the pile of papers and food stuffs that i swept onto the floor.... its all a facade ;)

Yeah Adrian, it's about 3.5L, make sure you get the Redline Lightweight Shockproof, it's expensive but beleive me it makes a HUGE difference. That's what I ran in that box before and it was silky smooth

haha I took that photo after spending around 5 hours last night cleaning up my office. I had even spray and wiped the desk for the 2nd time in 6 years :( Already sine that photo I have piles of papers (jobs) piling up all over the place and the usual bevy of empty coffee cups and drink glasses ....

i heard redline shockproof for jap cars is rubbish

I cant comment about redline oil, although alot of people rave about it, but with gear oils you need a happy medium between thin oil to help the synchro's and a thicker oil to help protect the gears, so I would suggest run as thicker oil as your synchro's can handle! once your gears have been overheated your looking at big cash to overhaul the box!

There are many who claim the same.

General comments are : it quietened down my box or improved gear selection but ultimatly the box shat its self and the mechanic said dont use redline.

I have not used it so I dont speak from personal experience.

lol

had to do a double take on oil amount for the patrol when i did an oil change. the 4.2 diesel takes 12.5 litres and 2 oil filters, the 2.8 turbo diesel only takes 8 litres and one filter LOL

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
