mux213 Wrote:Valvoline has this little advisor script on their website that will guide you through engine choice of your car. Interestingly enough the AE86 is actually mentioned within the list with recommendations

This is what they recommend:

Engine: Valvoline Durablend or Valvoline Maxlife engine oil (10W30, 10W50, 15W40, 20W40 or 20W50)

Gearbox: Valvoline DuraBlend Gear Oil GL-5 75W90

Diff: Valvoline DuraBlad Gear Oil GL-5 LS

Might be interesting to know

20W40 is pointless and 20W50 is far too thick unless you live in the desert.

As for GL-5 in the T50 gearbox, errrr no, since GL-5 lubricants contain an additive (sulphur I think) that is corrosive to our copper syncros...

Best oil by far for the T50 is Redline MT90 (GL-4 75W90).
