I need some too. What specific stuff do people recommend now.

Think my box is leaking. After the dragonball Sunday dash at 130mph for 30-40 mins I couldn't get into reverse at the tunnel and 1st was a struggle. Now I'm noticing the greers are a little more clunky when changing so need it sorted. It's fine for 2 hours at normal motorway speeds tho :p

I`ve read from supraforums.com many years ago that "V160 oil" is just normal dextron2 ATF oil, made by shell, if remember correctly. Toyota just branded it to "toyota V160" gearbox oil and sold it with good profit over the years ;)

 

I`ve used castrol transmax Z many years now, like some Finnish supra owners, with no broblems.

 

Believe who wants :)

No it was Esso dextron2 D21065 which apparently was the same oil used in the bmw m5 with 6spd manual getrag, some jap car companies just repackaged the oil and badged it v160 so they could charge loads for it
