Additional Notes

  • The rear differential fluid capacity across all 1996-1997 Toyota Supra A80 (JZA80) configurations, covering both the naturally aspirated 3.0 24V and the 3.0 24V Turbo, is uniformly 1.35 liters, which is a service fill figure applicable to fluid level checks and drain-and-refill changes alike.
  • Under normal use conditions, the standard rear differential (non-limited slip) calls for a fluid level check at 15,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, with no scheduled fluid change interval specified for that condition.
  • Under severe use conditions, the standard rear differential requires a full fluid change at 15,000 miles or 12 months, replacing the check-only interval that applies under normal use.
  • The rear limited slip differential under normal use carries a two-part schedule: a fluid level check at 15,000 miles or 12 months, followed by a full fluid change at 30,000 miles or 24 months.
  • Under severe use conditions, the limited slip differential interval tightens considerably, with a fluid change required at 15,000 miles or 12 months, matching the same interval applied to the standard differential under severe use.
  • The 30,000-mile or 24-month change interval for the limited slip differential under normal use is exactly double the check interval, reflecting the additional service demand that limited slip units place on fluid due to friction modifier degradation over time.
  • The 3.0 24V Turbo variant is listed separately for 1996 and 1997 as individual single-year entries, while the naturally aspirated 3.0 24V spans both years within a single 1996-1997 entry, though the fluid capacity and service intervals are identical across all of them.
