Ok guys since I'm the virgin here, let me run down a list of things that I need.

1. LE-607 or Mobil 1 75/90 gear lube
2. Crush washers (4) two for the Tranny and two for the Differential?
3. Honda Manual transmission fluid I don't know how much I need and the guy at the dealership problably doesn't know either ( always get the wrong part)
4. DOT 3 Brake fluid ( for the brakes) I read some where not to use DOT 4?

I'm also assuming (and you know what they say about ASS/U/ME) that Josh is going to make some kind of an official (GO!!) confirmation for this day.

Please correct me if I'm wrong on anything. Thanks guys,

-Will

1. Yes.
2. I think so but not sure.
3. Ask for 2 quarts of Honda Manual Transmission Fluid. Other alternatives includes GM Synchromesh Friction Modified and Redline MT-90. I'm currently using Synchromesh FM for my tranny now but I'm going to try out MT-90.
4. DOT 4 will work just fine. I'm currently using ATE Super Blue. I'll probably try Motul RBF 600 when I do a brake upgrade.

BTW, Josh and others, what do you think of using Redline 10W30 Synthetic engine oil and Motul Gear 300 75W90 for the rear differential?

Will, pick up 2 qts of MTF (you'll use about one and a half). You will need 4 new washers, in varying materials and sizes. I would suggest picking them up from your honda dealer for a couple of bucks, and buy multiple sets so you have them for next time.

No worries, Josh has hosted a bunch of tech days for us, and I've never seen one fall through yet. Usually a day or two out, he'll PM directions to anyone who hasn't been before.

***************************************

Here's a list of everyone who is in so far, and what they need done:
coraldoc - whatever he wants
wil687 - diff/tranny fluids
jeffbrig - oil/diff/tranny fluids
doorman - brake/clutch fluid and front pads (might have to work though)
s2000craze - diff/tranny (needs to confirm work schedule)
Fyrestrike - coming to help and bring DVD (if not working)
healandtoe - ???

Mav - are you coming up for the tech day?

That's kinda funny - 3 years on s2ki and I don't think we've ever crossed paths at one of these....

Redline oil is reported to be superior. I do not have any information on Motul gear oil.

The tech day WILL happen . Thanks, Jeff, for consolidating the information
