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.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
