reccomended oil redline mt90, box takes 4.2 litres, and the tranny takes about 1.1 litres

dot 5.1 fluid for the clutch, or dot 4, get a 500ml and that should do you.


hope this helps bro

I get Silkolene Syn5 from here:

http://www.questmead.co.uk/ who own this online now:

"oilman" who's posted about oil also has a company but I've not cross referenced prices or anything.

I was advised to use the Syn5 before as "Mitsubishi rally team do and they've not had a failure" Not sure how true it is but it makes a good story. Its good for both the diffs and your gearbox though.

Silkolene have newer oils but still recommend the Syn5 still for race applications (Meaning heavily abused).
