2 Litres of MTF man. Either Amsoil, or if you've no 5th gear crunch, contact Nimbus - they have Torco MTF which is also ace!

2.2 is for a full fill . I.E the gear box taken apart so all oil is removed.. You only need 1.9 for a drain and change...
I tend to tip my car one way for draining to get as much black oil out as poss and then fill on the level till I see oil start to drip back out the filler hole..

Is this the stuff I need?

Will I get away with 2 bottles, which will come in just under 2 litres, or should I get 3 to be safe?

i did mine recently too (LSD box), got it from Honda ... although they said you have to provide your own oil tub as they simply drain it from a barrel for you....
so i bought a cheap fuel can for it.
