I use Fuchs Titan pro race 5w40, if your going to track day the car 10w/60 etc

They state Castrol for the gearbox, but does that have the LSD additive? my last service on the invoice stated LSD oil front and rear diffs replaced.

Castrol is now branded universal, replacing the syntrax label 75/90 oil.

Brought mine from Opie oils

Get your filters and sealing washers from the dealers or shop on ebay, i see some people selling original filters for half the price, worth a look?

I use a magnetic drain plug and also have black hole magnets around the filter, this helps clean up the very fine metal shavings which slip through the filter :wink:

we carry all in stock............

normally Millers CFS range engine oils, as well as Motul/Shell Racing (multi ester based and far better product than Fcuhs/Silk IMO)

we would normally use CRX gear oils, withstand the heat generated by the electronic diff far better than the Syntrax but can also supply if reuired - you also want a specific LSD rear diff oil........
