I am finally changing to 3.73's in my 2008. Here in the UK the best option for oil I can get to is this from Motul.
Motul GEAR Competition 75W-140 Car Gearbox & LSD Oil

Well, I made it to the track with my newly installed VMP TVS this weekend, car is an 08 now with a VMP TVS, 2.5 inch pulley & FRPP 117mm intake, stock T/B, KR mufflers & stock H/E. Justin supplies a custom tune for users like myself that are based in Europe due to fuel octane & blend...

Stock 08 with TVS, 2.5 pulley, FRPP 113...
Current set up is Eibach Sportline, Tokico shocks & adjustable panhard on CS40's with a 285/30 tire.
Waiting for TVS to arrive :banana: & will need a bit more grip! Anyone running the 305 DR's with these springs & wheels? I have heard they may rub, offset is 45mm
