The Fuchs Syn 5, Millers CRX, Red Line 75w-90 GL5, Motul Gear 300 and Gulf Competition are ideal for the diff. The Fuchs Sintopoid, Castrol Syntrax Longlife, Millers TRX, Motul Motylgear, Mobil SHC and Gulf Syngear are also good choices.
Not same as box, normal 75/90 for dccd box but the LS stuff for rear diff, that's from what I gather for a spec c as Jdm have dccd. Non dccd can use same in both I thought it was.

Hi
Yes, but that is with a plated diff, with the mechanical diff, it takes the same as the gearbox.
It's just I wonder why some use the plated internals from a classic type r diff and fit into a newage diff for better grip for competition cars etc is what's got me thinking.
But I also believe putting LS oil into a mechanical diff will do no harm, but putting non LS oil into a plated diff is not advisory?
With a plated diff, you need the additional friction modifiers in an LSD oil, otherwise the plates can be too keen to bind together. That can lead to excess wear, noise and make it less driveable. The friction modifiers in LSD oils allow the plates to slip a little, making the diff a bit more like an open diff (to an extent).
