NISZILA Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I'm doing my first service on my R33. Its a non-turbo GTS 1993 model. Looking through the service manual, I can't find what grade of oil I should put in. Can anyone give me an idea what they use. I rang up AutoOne and they said Penrite HPR 15 or HPR 10, but I thought it sounded a bit low for a car my age. Any recomendations?

N1GTR Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I was recommended penrite 5w60 - works a treat when being thrashed Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/127125-oil-for-my-r33/#findComment-2348577 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NISZILA Posted July 22, 2006 Author Share Posted July 22, 2006 I think any good name with a semi synthetic not a fully synthetic. how many kms has it done I've done 132,000 k's.

R33_Rob Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I use 10W30. But ive never used any other oil so i don't know what my R33 N/A would run like if it was on different stuff Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/127125-oil-for-my-r33/#findComment-2348963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busky2k Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Its a non turbo so there is no reason to run Motul 300V nor go something as thick as molasses like the 5W60. Depending on your budget, I'd say something like GTX Magnatec or Shell Helix Ultra would be good without braking the bank.
