I went to Proparts beside Blanchardstown Shopping Centre. I actually got 3 bottles today for the Silvia. 65 bucks for the three. They just get them from Couture, same price, saves the drive!

Not hugely Greg, my gearbox is was a little notchy downchanging to second, always has been, and after changing it its still a bit notchy, although definately not as bad. I just heel/toe on downchange and it's perfect, no issues.

Well worth it tho! I use Millers myself. Seems like good stuff also!

My gearbox isn't notchy as such. It's just sometimes it won't go into any gear at all for a while when I first go to drive it, then 4th and 1st can be a fucker to select.

Cheers Chucky. I have Millers in my diff and it seems to be good stuff.

r154 are notchy at the best of times its just how they are

make sure the gearbox oil you get is of a gl4 specification as gl5 spec gear oils contain an aditive that causes the brass syncro's to rot

Mines a fucker when its cold for pretty much any gear.

I actually tried downchanging without using heel/toe today and it goes into second now almost perfectly, so yes the oil definately made a difference

Does that MT90 have the right stuff in it?

Oh right, must be just the gearboxes way of working. I want a W58 again.
