Hey guys, anyone got a reccomendation of oil to put in my mx83 cressy grande?
I changed to some castrol shiznit a while back and didnt realise it was single spinning until i started hooning a bit lately....got a whine happening too 
We have a repco and a superdodge here...im not sure if fancy redline stuff is available from there. Got a drag meet coming up on the 2nd of oct so i wanna find out if the diff is cactus or just using the wrong fluid before then so i can get another in.
The car has done a bit over 200,000km, and i dont think ive abused the diff too badly in the 25,000kms i've had it.
Cheers,
Troy

sounds like your diff is getting tired
castrol lsd oil should be good enough for it, if its making a whine and single spinning i'd be getting it looked at

Argh, i suspected as much. I tried a place in town (about 20,000 or so ppl here) and ive been asking for a quote to have it shimmed/rebuilt for about 2 months now, farking useless. Can i throw some really thick sticky oil in there to just get it through this meet until i can track down a 2 way for it?
Isnt 1jz-747 still running a stock grande diff?
Thanks anyways jack,
Troy

he is but i suspect its been changed now to a torsen
its weird, ive seen a diff come out of a grande with 120000kms and it was stuffed
you should be able to pick one up from a wreckers for $250-$300
i didnt think lsd's liked thick oil. In any case if your going to run your car i think your going to face problems and if it breaks how you getting home?
