| Rear Differential Fluid
Which rear diff oil do you guys use on your car? I can't seem to find local Motul suppliers. I was thinking of ordering from the states since the Motul oil is cheaper, but unsure if border will give me hassle? Any other oil brands I can research and consider?

I think both HBL Autosports and Aria carry Motul products -- at least Motul engine oil, diff fluids, and brake fluids.

Which manufacturer and car model do you own? I would follow the manufacturer's recommendations on grade and qualifications. The fine print at the back of the bottles are not gibberish, certain manufacturers have tests even the same grade of oil would act differently.

Redline and Royal Purple. Both have friction modifier, so no need for additives if you have an LSD.

Which car do you own?
I've played around with too many brands of different differential/transmission oils throughout my years of ownership. I've come to the conclusion that stock/OEM fluids are best.
