Hi Stuart,

I'm using the Nulon 10W/40 for the motor and Nulon for the gearbox. The gearbox one is for Matic J(As well as others). Diff oil should be the same as an R34 GTR me thinks.

You need about 5lt's for the motor and about 8lt's for a fully drained gearbox.

cheers

so Matic J Synthetic for the Auto and transfer, 75w90 GL4 front diff and 80w90 LSD GL5 for th rear diff.....

This sound OK?

Transfer case is same atf as gearbox and steering. Get a 20L drum as gearbox will take about 14L - you need to pump it out via the cooler pipes to get it all.

Any updates on how this went?

Looking to do the same. Thinking of http://www.nulon.com.au/products/Full_Synt...smission_Fluid/ in the auto and Red Line 'Lightweight Shockproof' for the diffs.

Comments?

Exactly what I have in my car.

No complaints whatsoever :happy:

Good to hear.

So how much do I need? Is the 20l comment above accurate?

How much of the Red Line?

Thanks

3 bottles of Redline Lightweight Shockproof will leave you with some left over. Get them from for damn good pricing :)

You will need around 8.3L of trans oil if filling from empty.... if flushing, Nissan use 10.5 on their machine.

As an aside, you can also use the Nulon trans fluid for the ATTESSA and power steering (Nissan use Matic D for these)

On the gearbox without flushing it completely you will be hard pressed getting 5lt's of the old oil out even with twin after market transcoolers( :))....so 5lt's if your just want to change what's in there without flushing. If not I think it's about 7lt's or 8lt's plus a flush....IMO unless your oil is cooked I would not bother with a complete flush.

As for the diff's.....haven't done em yet so.....I guess someone else can answer that.

I had a 60% blocked radiator for a while, so I wouldn't rule out cooked.

Got details on the after market oil cooler? I'm noticing the gearbox seems to start hunting a little bit after getting heated up on a long highway climb. Wouldn't mind getting a bigger cooler in there if it isn't a huge expensive job.

Any trans cooler will be of benefit.

Personally I am running a PWR "6-cylinder" unit and have mounted it on a bracket behind the grill as you can see below (obv without the grill).

There are plenty of cheap trans coolers. Just note that if you are using a 3/8" transmission hose, you will need to make sure of the connection to the radiator cooler as I believe they are slightly smaller than 3/8".

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
