Thx for the info....now im asking myself why the hell LINKS told me i need 3.5 litres for Transmission MOTUL LSD oil 75w90 and 0.7 litres of the same oil for my diff.
Sounded wiered to me soooo i cancelled appointment to get it done there untill i could consult ya'll first.......
Now i know
1.75 for Trans. and 1.3 for diff.
On a different note;
Had a peek at Lee's (Wangan) Rx8 this afternoon in Sunway.....
WOW
....... nice ODULA front bumper......Re-Amemiya skirts...... Rims look damn good too.....especially when he has ENDLESS 6pot calipers peeking thru em
mated to AutoEXE rotors front 'n' back....
Maybe the only thing that i didn't like was the VARIS C/F hood......Fitment is NOT Perfect (im a perfectionist, if it doesn't fit as well or better than OEM.....i won't buy!!!) Everything else LOOKS AWESOME!!!!!
Wiper Blades (AutoEXE) looks good too
.....
Too bad Lee hasn't fitted his rear wing yet.............

If it's manual transmission or LSD , can try Kaaz 75w90 or Trust 75w90.

Change the tranny oil, you'll feel the difference. I changed mine at 28000 km.

Yup....i noticed (had a peek at ur car too couple of days ago....
)......Maybe with Lee's VARIS hood, its just an adjustment issue....... Uneven shut-lines bug the hell outta me.......
Ur 8 looks DA BOMB
.......... Like everything bout it...... Even bodykit fitment looks TOP NOTCH
..........U also have Endless 6pot Calipers and rotors........ Obviously, im more impressed with ur turbokit
Here are some Paparazzi shots of Lennon's Rx8

The mileage on my car is now 13k........... Just wanted to change oil for peace of mind......Considering my RX8 is a 2004 model.....That mean its still on its factory oil 2 years on........ Thx for the feedback
Wow..... Who's car is that!!!! So sweet leh..... hehehhe......
Bro you pass by oso didn't say hello..... I'm always in Wangan until this week, i started a new job....
Lee's bonnet actually can be adjusted to the shut line..... All he need is a good MAGAT LOU..... Mine fit in directly with slight adjustment..... If only ChargeSpeed produce a CF bonnet!!!!!!!
