Hello,

Can anybody give me a list of fluid amounts that are need for the SR20DET S13? I am looking for the Diff and 5 speed trans amounts, But a full list might be helpful for any one else that might try to search for them, like I did.
Thanks

3.5 for oil, as for the diff, set it on a even surface an fill oil through the hole until its to the bottom of the hole and then close it off.

3.5 for motor oil. 2.5 for tranny. 2.0 for diff. tranny and diff, you fill it up until it starts coming out of the filler hole.

For engine oil, buy 4 quarts. Fill it up with 3 and top it up a little bit more with that last one. Check so you don't overfill. Keep the rest as spare.

For gearbox fluid, buy 3 quarts. Like was said above, fill it up until fluid comes out of the filler hole and the car is flat.

Same for rear diff flui.

For coolant, mix about 2 gallons for a simple drain and refill. More if you're planning on flushing.

For power steering, just top it off. Same with brake fluid. Flushing brakes will require about 2 quarts.
