dave572 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Hey everyone, I need to order some differential oil, since I have an open diff, I guess I cannot use oem vlsd Nissan fluid? If you could please recommend me the best fluid for my diff, I would appreciate it . I also see that molyslip is recommended in addition to oem Nissan transmission fluid. Is this similar to what I may need to add to the differential oil? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie-B Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Moly slip, What's that? A friction modifier ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen@Clark Motorsport Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Moly slip, What's that? A friction modifier ? Yes Richie, it really improves the gear change in a Z, we always recommend it when changing the gear oil http://www.clarkmotorsport.co.uk/parts/Molyslip-Gearbox-Protector/65-ml/GM6RA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMANALEX Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Not sure what the manual says, however I use just normal Hypoy 80-90 for open diffs with good results. Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave572 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 Well I decided to buy Fuchs TITAN Gear Hyp 90 Hypoid Gear Oil GL5 80w-90 x 2 litres for the differential and OEM Nissan MT-XY 75W/85 Gear Oil x 3 litres (Clark Motorsport) + Molyslip for the transmission . Thanks for the advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
