Differential/tranny Change (Help)

About to change my diff. and tranny oil in my 05 350ZR and figured WTH, get the 02 Maxima (6Spd) changed as well.

Can anyone tell me if this is the right gear oil for both the differential and tranny?

http://www.forgedperformance.com/sto...cat=280&page=1

Also is it 2 liters for the differential and 4 for the tranny? Thanks for any help, also I couldn't find a DIY on this either. I have access to my own lift. Thanks

I checked the DIY and was wondering if you could use a suction gun to fill the tranny and LSD instead of a 5 foot funnel?

And yes, ZR is a 350Z Roadster,
