Like many it seems, I had the problem with getting 2nd gear when first starting the car up in the morning.

Sooo... heeding the forum advice, I replaced the g'box oil with Redline Superlight Shockproof (R34 GTR). Woo hoo! Liquid gearbox rebuild - 2nd gear even when it's cold!

where do you purchase this Redline Superlight Shockproof and how much for what quantity? cheers

- Ross.

I can also vouch for Redline, I use both the lightweight (gearbox) & heavy for the diff. Gear changes felt smooth as new.

I bought mine through Bursons at Lilydale in Victoria, but they had to order it in from WA (took under a week to get it). I can't remeber exact prices.

I got 4l for the gearbox, and used about 3.7l, and about 1.5L? (can't remember exactly) in the diff. Price I think ws around $$130.00 for all of it, maybe a bit more.

Cheers.

Guys, try going to Oilworld down at Moorabin area just off Keys Road in Victoria. They give discount to SAU members. If you're lucky, the manager might come to you and explain all about the redline oil and how good it is :huh:

Get's boring after a while :)

Awesome!!!!!!!!

I live in Carnegie so its not too far ill have to check it out soon. How many litres do i need for gearbox, diff and engine.......

Reagrds,

Hey Guys,

I strongly recommend the Redline Superlight Weight Shockproof oil. I just got my oil changed and it runs so smooth in the mornings now. I use to double clutch in the morning just to get in second gear, but now there's no probs

If your going to change your gear oil. YOU THIS STUFF IF YOU KNOW WHATS GOOD FOR YOU.

:(

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
