Here are the fluid recommendations for my car (keep in mind the 3000GT VR4s are AWD:
Recommended lubricants (from the service manuals)
Manual transaxle and transfer case:
Hypoid Gear Oil, SAE 75W-90 or 75W-85W conforming to API classification GL-4
Rear differential:
Hypoid Gear Oil API classification GL-5 or higher
Above -23ºC (-10ºF) SAE 90, 85W-90, 80W-90
From -34ºC (-30ºF) to -23ºC (-10ºF) SAE 80W, 80W-90
Below -34ºC (-30ºF) SAE 75W
Lubricant capacities (from the service manuals)
Manual transaxle [to bottom of filler hole]:
FWD: 2.3 L (2.4 qts)
AWD: 2.4 L (2.5 qts)
Transfer case:
5-speed: 0.27 L (0.29 qts) [1991-1992: 0.43-0.51 inch (11-13 mm) below the filler hole; 1993+: to bottom of filler hole]
6-speed: 0.30 L (0.32 qts) [to bottom of filler hole]
Rear differential [to bottom of filler hole]:
1.1 L (1.16 qts)
Alot of members of 3Si.org have been using Redline Shockproof heavy in our transfer cases. Since the transfer cases on these car usually see high amounts of load, I think this is a pretty good idea. The 3Si members have been doing this for a while without any problems. What does everyone think about this? I am currently using Redline MT-90 in my transfer case. Here are some pics of the trannies/transfer cases on the AWD 3000GT's/Stealth's for reference:
