I've ordered a litre of the Motul GEAR 300 LS 75W-90 Fully Synthetic Car Limited Slip Differential Oil (LSD), which is the one everyone seems to use online, and then topping up with Motul Gear 300 75W-90 Fully Synthetic Car Gearbox & Diff Oil (as above). They are the same grade but not sure what the difference is.
Just been on the phone to the Toyota parts man to buy the correct gaskets for diff and transmission plugs (cost over £20) and he gave me the following part number 08885-81070.
It costs £29.90 + VAT per litre and you need 1.something litres so 2 tins required. It is however 75W-85 so now i'm wondering if i've made the right choice!

It is for only 8000 miles a year but I'm only 22 with 4 years ncb
well how it's so cheap i don't know. adriun flux quoted me about £900 and i have 20 years NCD, i'm 38 and only have 1 tiny supercharger!

Hi Guys,
Any idea of the best insurance company around for modified GT86s? Specifically with a supercharger...
cheapest I can find is £1000/year, even with 20 years NCD!

As I understand it (might be wrong) but the extra power comes from having a better fuel/air mix. The fuel pump and injectors remain the same so if you drive it normally it shouldn't use any more fuel.

You could always get an eBay turbo
I'd suggest just keeping an eye out for second hand kits - there was a supercharger sold on here for 2k in the last few months, which has to be the way to go if you want to keep prices down.
Hello,
What's the design flaw with the HKS?
I've kinda got my heart set on the Cosworth Stage 2 option but just interested in eliminating the competition!
