my fren use 2L redline in B16B,gear changing is quite hard.After add another ml,then the gear shifting is better.He said,better use Honda(OEM) gear oil.

[jingut_04]

If I'm not mistaken,RM150 for 4/5 liter(sorry,lupa la).Get from LHS or Mie hattech pon boleh kot

how much u paid for the torco? in 1 litre bottle or 2L? where u got it?

 

[avantasia]

after 5,000km used redline

for the first time i tried Redline 75w/90 LSD g/b oil...first 10k,ok...after that hard to shift...sucks...somemore expensive...I only trust 2 brands...Motul & Chemlube which really satisfied me...I use both for engine and g/b...

currently using Motul 90PA and lot better than Redline ...going to change clutch plate and gonna use Motul 80w/90 g/b oil...

Mie hattech,

u should try to sell Chemlube Semi-Syn and see how ...u can compare with
Motul Turbolight and feel the different ! and more cheaper compare to Turbolight and Ester base...

 

[evoX2]

motul 90PA is mineral oil is it?

MOTYLGEAR 75W-90 not suitable for LSD?

 

[mugen9]

yes...90PA is mineral and i feel way better than redline 75w/90 fully syn...
the 80w/90 i think should be ok..semi-syn and i will pour together with Lubegard gearbox additive...wanna try...few my friend tried and thumbs up...
yup.the 80w/90 didn't stated it's for LSD oil...

 

[evoX2]

so the best bang for $ is 90PA? how about honda oem manual gear fluid, suitable for LSD?
act got two type of honda oem, one is local made with plastic 1L bottle & one type is japan 4L metal one. but none mentioned about LSD.

 

[mugen9]

normally the manufacturer should made the oil for their gearbox... i have no idea since i never tried Honda OEM fluid....the only Honda spareparts that I trust is in Subang Jaya,Exceptional Autoparts...if it is from Japan,they would tell the truth...

I would try to avoid local assemble lubricants...right now lots of imitation...
almost everything....

 

[boss_11]
