LE607. Lubrication Engineers have had an office here for 25 years so we can get the same stuff the yanks rave about. But it's about $80 a litre!

Sorry to bring this topic up again guys but is anyone using this stuff in their diff

http://www.nulon.com.au/products/SAE_90_Li...fferential_Oil/

seems to match what the handbooks recommends but I did notice it says in the description that it contains some friction modifiers and I heard thats not suitable for the S2000 diff ?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

I'm using some Nulon product in my spare diff at the moment whilst mine is being rebuilt/reinforced. But I'd thrown the container out so can't confirm which one it is.

In my main diff I use LE1605 (replacement for LE607).
