Does that mean your new transmission will be a rear bias?

Aus delivered svx'ers have a rear bias already!! same AS JDM,
whats the vote... should i just go ahead and add one? or does it have to do with a higher grade of oil out here that they may not need one??

Drop the skid Plate and look for the bottom of the battery....Right about there ......In regards to adding the filter I vote for yes to be on the same side.

I spoke to Harvey, it is possible the aussie svx (or some year models) didnt have them... his svx does not have one either
