should be changing your diff oil with your engine oil, less if youre giving it abuse like drifting.
so every service you change the oil on the car should do the diff oil......Quote:

there is no real wrong (to a certain degree) or right here lads most people i know including my self would be over cautious and change oils at every chance we get and i know some of the top drivers would change all the oils after every event. change ur oil if its still making a whining noise it could very well be the bearings in the diff
well most lsd manafacturers recommend you change it every 5000km or less if your using it for track, also johno make sure you get a mineral based oil, like either of the ones mentioned above. do not get a synthetic oil as the plate type diffs dont like it. makes them noisier.
bit of 7up in the diff and shell be fizzn down the track !hahahaha
:D:D:D
I can't get B373 here, but I know Diff put some Castrol stuff in my diff before, but can't remember what it was.
probably castrol ls 90, grand stuff.
As the boys would say.....Beast. :DQuote:

who you go to
Shockproof is the stuff to use in your box, under hard driving the shockproof oil gives a greater cushion to the gear teeth on meshing and prevents wear better than other gear oils.
Theres two types mostly used,
Red 75w140
Blue 75w90
thanks man:p:)Quote:
