first off it is not grease, it is oil.
get under your ca and you will see two bolts on the side of the tranny. one above the other. the lower one is to empty. remove it and drain. then remove the upper one and add the oil till it reaches the lip of the hole. use your finger to check the level.
Make sure it is LEVEL with the filler hole, the upper one.
You should NOT have to bend your finger to get to the fluid.
Use Redline MT-90.
The bolts will be mounted on the front side of the tranny facing the front of the car. About half way down the case. Cant miss them. I think they are 14mm.

Been hearing lots about this lately. My second gear is like this. I was actually gonna find the other post because i couldn't remember what i was told to use. It is about five quarts right? And why MT-90? Just curious.
Thanks for any help.

would someone mind posting a pic of the drain bolt. I was sure i had it from your explanation but when i took it off only the tiniest bit of sludge came out. uh oh... hahaha maybe its just never been done and theres nothing left but a bit of oil and metal.
I don't have access to digital right away....i always have to scan old school....but if theres nothing in there.. . There is a pic already here on the site but i don't remember where. Lemme go look.
EDIT:
No no pics on the thread. Only the same info here so i was wrong. If i go over to my friends soon enough to help you ill get a digital shot for ya.

The drain plug is huge and right near the bottom. It's like a 15/16ths socket or something huge like that. Sounds to me like you may have opened the filler plug.
the drain plug usually isn't by the filler plug. on my accent tranny and my beta tranny the drain plug is in the back on the bottom of the differential. the filler plug is in the front sticking straight forward.
