Slightly off topic but kinda still on...

What do you guys use as far as the rest of the fluids? My M35 will be here soon and I plan on giving it a big service so I know where I'm at but just looking for advise as to what peopl run... Engine/Trans/Diff/Altessa?

Much thanks :)

Engine: Neo N-RPS-10w30 – 5L

GB: Nissan Matic-J or S

Altessa and Power steering: Nissan Matic-D

Diff: Neo Diff oil.....or the good Castrol stuff (If you have V-Hicas you will have a limited slip diff....make sure you use the correct LSD oil)

I do indeed have a V-Hicas, can I assume only the rear diff is an LSD? so 2 different oils will be required?

Also what is the transfer case Aaron spoke about? :)

the transfer case hangs off the Transmission and you'll see the front drive shaft going into it. It holds the clutch plates for the trans

its about half a litre of oil and doesnt take more than 20 minutes...

im using Red line Light weight shock proof for my rear LSD. some people dont like it. but it says its made for LSD as well, and I havnt had any problems at all. and its a group 5 oil. ive got it in the front diff too

Take a look at www.m35stagea.info in particular the thread below will have your answers.

You sure its the same filters as S15? GCC listing says its the same as a SR20DE, but theres a different filter listed for SR20DET?

SR20DE: http://www.gccorp.com.au/automotive/product_info.php?cPath=54_57&products_id=145

SR20DET: http://www.gccorp.com.au/automotive/product_info.php?cPath=54_57&products_id=144

I'm running the SR20DE at the moment.

If you are running the Nismo oil filter, it should state on the side of the box that it is used for M35 and S15 among others.

Seems you answered your own question??

Now I'm more confused... they both say SR20DET, just different models. Surely one SR20DET is the same as another? :s

Doesn't matter, my oil filter is right, so I'm all good! :thumbsup:

if they'd revised the sump design between the S14 and S15 they may have needed to use a different sized filter ;)

close, S14 and S15 engines are almost identical. the S13 and S13 FWD SR20 took different (and larger) filters.

i think i am going to go with

Castrol SLX Professional

Longlife III

Powerflow 5W-30

Its what my VW use on all their Golfs including the GTI and on all modern Audi's now too.. One oil is nice for both cars too means i can always use the excess :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
