For the diff you need

1 x US quart (946ml) Red Line Heavy ShockProof gear oil.

Not sure what goes in the gear box though.
Ooooh, you've put the cat amongst the pigeons now! My diff mechanic recommends it but xviper has written up a report on it - it sounds like its great for track work but not so great for a daily driver.

That was the advice that I got from Gavin at Redline. Didn't realise that it was such a contentious subject, but you can't beat a bit of healthy debate
