Filling Gearbox

[central coast person]

hey guys, looking for a quick answer too my situation. I need to drive tomorrow to get to school to do my trail examinations and i did my gearbox oil today to take a chill from study. I put 3.9L of redline shockproof in my box and thats all i had, i thought it was 3.8L to fill the gearbox.

Am i going to be ok driving my gearbox around without filling it up to the, filler plug......am i close to the filler plug with 3.9L that it isnt going to matter???

Cheers, Andrew

From my experience with my 25 box you have more than enough mate.

I buy redline in 3.75 litre bottles and if i use it all I get a small amount coming out the breather when I drive the car in anger

I think about 3.5 litres is ideal (for me anyway)

its a GTS4 so its a gearbox the same as a stagea. I guess it must be so close to the top judging by everyone's box's ranging from 3.5-4.1 that 3.8 will be fine .....

Cheers for your help

The manual says it holds approx 4.1l, 3.9l is close enough.. 4 quarts is actually 3.78l though.. I gave my mechanic 5.76 litres of shockproof lightweight to do my gearbox (4.1l by the manual) + front diff (1l by the manual).. was left over with half a bottle (6x 0.946l bottles)
