Maybe Non Synchro.. :oops: :wink: :lol:

Make sure the gearbox oil is also good for the LSD... i once forgot about the LSD and put in an additive to stop the crunching and make the shifting easier :oops: . just didn´t realize that the `lessens friction` part is just what you don´t need in a LSD, it needs friction... :?
Drive it like you stole it...

Not sure of the NS abbreviation, but the 75w90NS is for LSD diffs, while the 75w90 is for non-LSD diffs. It is all synthetic.
