Motul is frog f**ker shite. It gave me nothing but trouble, as soon as it got temperature into it my oil pressure dropped. Penrite Sin is my second choice after Royal Purple, it is almost as good as proven in that independent test a few years back

You should probably enlighten us as to why before we disregard anything else you ever say as the ramblings of a crazy person

just one of those personal preference things.

havnt heard anything bad about royal purple.

in the missus mazda 3, went from penrite 5-40 everyday full synthetic, to motul 8100x-cess 5-40, and could feel a decent difference by seat of the pants feel.

Fair enough, I like RP because it gets to 500km without any silly oil pressure shenannigans. Every other oil I have used does not. Also in the famous test from a few years back it was the only oil that came out of the 'load up the bearing with 100Lb of force' test with a bearing that would not have resulted in a death rattle.

I used penrite for the first 6 months of owning the car. It was ok but did give me some weird pressure readings. Switched to RP on the qld boys recommendation and have been very happy with it. My only problem is getting my hands on a bottle hence why I have to order it in from the parts shop across the road from work.

hairy muff.

each to their own.

my engine builder has recommended penrite.

I just have to find the right grade.

will be looking at going ten tenths.

hope they dont change their range again.

Exactly right, everyone has their own preference when it comes to oil.

Same here, I get 3000ish ks on Penrite before my pressure goes silly.

They are forever screwing around with the range, but that have something silly like 5W70. I use that in mine when I cant get my hands on the Purp

yeah, builder recommended hpr70, doesnt exist in a full synth.

so, need to start looking.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
