With my recent purchase of a GTD I have a few questions I'm hoping some of you could give me some feedback on.

1. I have the Renault Turbo Transaxle: What fluid do you use - 90 wt?

2. The air cools pretty well until you get into stop and go traffic. I noticed the condensor is back by the engine. Anyone running it up front somewhere?

3. First GT40 I've ever had. Noticed slight viberation that is not wheels/tires, is that common with rear-engine transaxles vehicles or should I be searching for a problem ie; engine balancer, clutch etc.

4. Rear transaxle ratio seems pretty low which I thought would be the opposite for higher top end speeds. Get up and goes quick what rearend ratios are most of you running?

Thanks for your feedback, I love the car just need to sort out a few things! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
