[RichyR]

LOL Manny's?

Hanny's Performance Centre
Unit 3, 28 Victoria St Smithfield NSW 2164
ph: (02) 9725 5115

Hanny's are a bit different in style to a honda dealership, but they know there stuff backwards and are incredibly helpful. Worth the drive from Epping, just go down cumberland highway and turn right into Victoria St. Usually can service the car while you wait.

you don't have a 17mm ring spanner, a 1.4in driver ratchet, a 13mm ID hose and a small funnel?

This may sound like a stupid question but,
How do you get the gearbox oil back in?

[BlitZ]

Dont know where you got the "dont need to change the fluid" at but whoever you got it from, I would stop listening to them.

Here in USA, alot of ITR owners use GM-Syncromesh with Friction Modifier. I use it all the time in my new tranny. In the past, I have used it with transmissions that needed new syncro's. When you add this, I assure you your syncro's wont crunch anymore.

I have to double check my pricing but I can get a quart of this for about $8.00 USD + shipping

I had a search some time ago for GM-syncromesh. I even went to GM (holden) spares and asked for it.. they havent even heard of it. We dont have syncromesh in AUS.. well atleast i couldnt find it..

With a funnel & hose (there's another nut you need to open at the side of the gearbox)

[tinkerbell]

the 1m long hose runs down from around the brake mastercyle area to the GB entry hole,

the funnel goes in the hose, simple...

[DC2R]

So the gearbox has an entry and exit hole?
Drain the oil from the exit, then run the garden hose down from the brake mastercylinder area to the gearbox entry hole and fill with 2.2 - 2.3L

hey do you think Motul FF-LSD type2 would be suitable for use in a DC2R ?

i seriously would not suggest that oil, dc2r tends to heat up alot during hard driving, the Motul FFLSD T2 lasted me one session on winton before it overhead and turn into water..whereas the Redline lasted aaaaaaggggessss...the Type2 is gd for streets as its very smooth when they are brand new but once they heat up...thats the end of it changing gears become very sticky and hard to engage...and i m not the only one....annother friend with dc2r experienced it too...he only does a little bit of hard driving once in a blue moon

Actually Motul FF-LSD is for clutch style LSD's. Regular 75w90 Motul Gear 300 is fine for DC2 Type R Torsen LSD.
