1 gallon is 4.5L

as long as the car is level, all you need to do is keep filling it 'till it starts to come out of the plug hole. just add normal g.b oil if ur out of Redline- it blends anyway

Who's gallon? The Seppos have a different (lesser) amount in their gallons than the empire does.

1 US gallon equals 3.785 litres.

1 Imperial gallon equals 4.546 litres.

well seeing as we are talking about Redline.. which is a US product... and the fact that it states 3.78litres on the bottle... im going with 3.78

There really is no set amount seeing as how you may have been empty when filling anything I always grab more then needed. You just fill till it seeps out then you know your good...

I just did all my fluids too.. 2 bottles of royal purple in each diff, and 2 bottles of Automatic Transmission Fluid in the transfer case as reccomended by Nissan... Shifts smoother then ever...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
