Additional Notes

  • All three configurations of the Datsun (Nissan) Silvia S12 covered in the 1984-1988 range share an identical automatic transmission fluid capacity of 7 liters, regardless of engine variant.
  • The 7-liter figure applies uniformly across the 1.8 Turbo, 2.0 DOHC, and 2.0 variants, indicating the same automatic transmission unit was paired with each of those engines during the 1984-1988 period.
  • A capacity of 7 liters for an automatic transmission is consistent with a total system fill, which typically accounts for fluid held within the torque converter, valve body, and transmission pan combined.
  • All three rows carry a normal use condition, meaning the 7-liter capacity figure is associated with standard operating service rather than a severe-duty or first-change-only scenario.
  • The 2.0 DOHC variant is listed separately from the standard 2.0 configuration, yet both share the same 7-liter automatic transmission fluid capacity across the full 1984-1988 span.
