Hi guys!

I am considering to change my gearbox oil soon so wondering what kind or brand of gearbox oil be more suited for my Integra type R 97 JDM with a after market 1.5 way LSD Cusco

 

I would check with cusco or someone that carries cusco products.

 

Cheers for the reply!

 

Be sure to post the answer when you figure it out, you know, for the next guy who searches for cusco diff lubrication. cheers

 

I found out that the best option is to use Cusco LSD Oil

Like an engine, a differential casing must have oil inside in order to operate. An LSD creates more heat than standard differentials therefore the right oil must carefully be considered. For daily driving conditions, the differential oil should be changed once every two engine oil changes. For aggressive driving, the differential must be changed more frequently. Cusco provides three types of LSD oil. The Cusco Mission Oil (75W-85) is recommended for FF or 4WD (front) applications. For FR and 4WD (rear) applications, as well as midship cars, the Cusco LSD Oil (80W-90) is the right choice. For long, and endurance type racing on FR, 4WD (rear), the Cusco LSD Oil Super 140 (80W-140) is recommended. This oil is also recommended for those who want to increase sensitivity of their LSD too.

Cusco Mission Oil (75w-85): 2520 yen (1L)
Cusco LSD Oil (80W-90): (1L)
Cusco LSD Oil Super 140 (80W-140): 3360 yen (1L)

I assume the cusco lsd is a viscous (sp?) lsd and not a helical (like a quaiffe)?

No, it is a clutch/plate style unit.
