    Engine : Blacktop 20v - Repco (penrite) 10w30
    Box: T50 Castrol VMX80
    Diff: Castrol LSD oil VMX90 I think
    Oil Filter: Ryco

    Repco oil is exactly the same as penrite, bit like toyota oil is the same as castrol.

    KAAZ seems to be one of the few companies which give a warning about using synthetic in their LSDs. There does seem to be alot of speculation about using full synthetic though...

    Ive had penrite sin in my TRD 2way for the last 20000km and its still the same as the day I put it in. Barely any chatter until I stopped driving the car daily. (bought the lsd second hand though)

    I used to use penrite until they started adding +10 onto it.

    I use Nulon Hi-Tech Fast Flowing Engine Oil - 10W-30 or the Valvoline Dura blend.
    Box: Redline shockproof
    Diff: Whatever looks good at the time [Welded centre]

    I have been using drift filters, but I am going to get some HKS Hybrid ones to try out, they looks like a much better filter.

    Engine: Penrite 10-60 Semi - Best I have used so far
    Box: Castrol VMX with Nulon additive - Have used Redline Shockproof, couldn't tell you the difference...
    Diff: Penrite 140 with Nulon additive - Awesome, 2-way locks very well and not as noisy as other oil
