Im going to get a few things done on the car over the next few weeks. Im trying to find out what i need. I tried the search but found it hard to find anything relevant.
I have a GPX manual
What oil should i use for the gearbox and how much will i need? Is there a filter on the gearbox oil that needs to be changed? I cant seem to find these on Camskill
How much engine oil is needed? i think its about 5 litres but am not sure plus what filter do i need to get
Im going to change the brake pads too that bits straight forward enough
Id like to buy everything from Camskill if possible, im going to have a look shortly.

I assume you haven't downloaded the owners manual. If not, get it from here and check page 110.
No filter on the manual box.Check this thread for engine oil filter compatibility.

No need to buy everything from Camskill either. Filters, oil, gearbox oil etc. are all standard items and can be purchased here locally and probably cheaper.
Obviously you can get your poly bushes, anti-roll bar links etc. from Camskill, but not required for the basics.

I got all my fluid based stuff from opie oils, you'll get a discount too.
If this is the first time you are changing them, it's an absolute b1tch to do. Mallets were involved.

Thanks for the help, does anyone know how much transmission fluid will be needed for the change. I used the search but i couldnt find a definitive answer.
