did you ever have any luck dave?

lol gaz... someone.. one day... will give you feedback on this royal purple!

Redline mt90 cured my syncro problem for a whille now my box is noisey as hell under load .Think im just going to try some silkolene stuff to try and revive it.:)

my box sounds like its dragging along the floor when you give it hard throttle from low rpm... quietens up when the rpm gets higher...

People have been recommending and using MT90 in their boxes on here for years and I've never heard anything bad about it.

There are certainly a lot of very good reports so I'll keep using it.

well iv just ordered a box of that mt90 stuff so hopefully it should cure my syincro 4th gear problem, but it never gives me any other problems quiet as a mouse ill write a review of it after a couple of months lol!

arrived this morning might as well pour it down the drain now after reading this.... lol!

MT90 is a great gearbox oil, stick it in and see what happens, it can't work miracles, but for a lot of people the snchro problem is alleviated!

just realised im 1 bottle short iv got 2890 odd do i need 3L worth for my jap na?

Well 4 years on with Royal Purple in my engine and Gearbox and still performing well! Changed the engine oil this time last year to Royal Purple Racing oil and on a recent check it's still a dark purple colour and none of the black stuff you normally find... Amazing stuff and reduces engine and transmission drag...

LOL! Well she is my daily drive and I guess I do roughly 8-10K a year in miles... Do the odd long journey up to Bristol to see me Bro but yeah it is good gear and something i'll be sticking too! :hyper:

Makes me laugh how peoples opinion of products changes on here over the years.

For years something is really popular then it changes overnight when one person says their engine or gearbox blew up at 20psi so it must be the oil or whatever LOL

Years ago it was all Blitz & HKS stuff people thought the mutts nuts.

Now it's a different set of stuff that all does the same job.

I've got MT90 waiting to go in. My box is in pretty good shape judging by those that have driven it. It's tried and tested in the US and there are many more high powered TTZ32s over there than there are here.

ordered another bottle - what should i throw in the diff? cant afford mt90 for it lol!!

You shouldn't really put gearbox oils in the diff. They need a different weight of fluid. Redline do a range of diff oils. Nissan manual says differential gear oil should be API GL-5*2. Redline product would be a 75W90 lube oil.

Z32 diffs are pretty robust.
