YEAH seen it i also seen the Nulon SAE 80w oil but didnt get it as its a straight weight oil
but perhaps mayeb would have been a more cheaper alternative
iil see how i go with the synthetic one i have now so far so good but i cant tell for sure until i ahve driven a few 100ks with it

not too sure about the gear selector forks on mine though as i have no idea how to tell wether they are the problem part

cheers

The NULON SAE80 Smooth Shift Manual gearbox and transaxle oil has worked wonders, feels so much slicker when changing now.

Heres my old oil...anyone know what kind this is? looks like laundry detergent. [88]

It smelled even worse dude lol [xx(]
God only knows what had been done to that car before I had it haha. I'm amazed the gearbox even works after having that muck in there...it was probably 20 years old.

Looks like Redline Shockproof oil in the "medium" variety. I think superlightweight is a yellow colour, lightweight is blue, and heavy is red.

Gets as complicated as you want to make it, but doesn't change anything.

Yeah looks like lightweight to me. I took a pic when putting it in my box. The oil splatterd on the cardboard on the ground looks to be more accurate though:
