R34 Gtr Transfer Case

[Johnny]

Hey blokes,

i did a quick search and looked at the sticky thread but id just like to comfirm if there are any differences between the r32-r34 gtr transfer cases regarding which fluid to use; SAU recommmends castrol transmax Z but should i spend more and opt for the toyota v160 auto tranny fluid i used in the getrag?

anyone here have an r34 gtr who has done a fluid change and not encountered any issues?

id appreciate any help

thankyou.

due to the fact i was restricted to a terminal speed below 140MPH with the old set-up, even just pulling 4th gear will see it go quicker and faster (yes 9.95 @ 139 MPH using only 3 gears!). ANDRA rules state that any car exceeding 140MPH must have a parachute fitted, and due to the fact i didn't have one...i was holding it in 3rd for half of the track...i knew that 9100rpm over the line in 3rd gear would run 139 MPH...not 140. The new PPG dogbox, much bigger turbo and a parachute fitted will see the car run much faster and quicker...how much?...well only time will give the answer to that one. Id love to run a 8.9 though.

Amazing.....holding redline like that while concentrating on going straight on is a challenge.

id like to see the first low mount turbo car with a parachute out the back and what your excuse to the police officer would be.

Good luck mate, please let us know when you get running again as im keen to see it.......keep safe though!

UPDATE

Got my car back from the mechanics; had castrol transmax Z put in. Sold from Bursons it was 90dollars for 4 litres.

Now no noticible change in the car but its nice and smooth and under some throttle in 1st n 2nd there were no warning lights or strange noises.

For anyone with an r34 gtr unsure of what to use, the castrol is fine. I, like always am very paranoid and had thought r34 transfer cases would require a different fluid to the r32 and 33.

Im not hesitant to use it in my gearbox the next time a service is due as i paid a premium for toyota getrag v160.
