GL-4 "yellow metal safe".
Napa or Baxters.
Re: soon to be LZ2.3 521 :)
So some royal purple 80w 90?
I've got some 5w 30 laying around I could use that to brake in the Lz rright? Or is a different weight better to use for that. I've got some zinc additive for it.

Spending money left an right, had to get the pathfinder a new battery. For some reason my oil cooler hasn't been sent yet so I'm like wtf. For some reason it might get here the 4th of Aug, that can't happen... I sent the seller an email to see what's up? Well see where that goes...

Re: soon to be LZ2.3 521 :)
As for the trans oil...brand doesn't matter, but you want it to be safe for the brass syncros/yellow-safe.
Somewhere there was a pic of the legit stuff to get.
Izzo was searching for yellow-safe GL4?
Royal Purple is great stuff.
But if it is not safe for the brass it will still eat it.

Right now I'm looking at redline.
I was thinking royal. Both pretty much the same price, I'll have to look at the royal purple site.
I'll stop by a napa store and see what they have as well.

Royal purple's site isn't specific enough for my liking.
Go with that Redline stuff.
StaLube was the stuff I was speaking of earlier.

This is what I read and where.
"It is non-corrosive to soft yellow metals (brass, bronze, copper, etc.) and synchronizer safe. Specially designed to extend gear and bearing life"
http://www.royalpurpleconsumer.com/products/max-gear/
but I was already thinking about getting redline.

Really cleaned the garage, put the girls quad in the bed of my truck. That way I can have more space to work on it.
Made it so I can use the cherry picker in side.

Thinking about getting this head gasket.
http://datsunpartsllc.com/cart/index.ph ... &parent=30
I have no problem trying to make one out of the Z24 hg but if I can buy one that doesn't need to be modified then I'll get it.
I guess my main concern is if it's the right thickness.

Re: soon to be LZ2.3 521 :)
That's a deal as far as I am concerned, I think I had to make 4 of them gaskets, I was very tired of making headgaskets.
It looks like it has all the holes already also, I am thinking about getting one myself.
