I use motul 8100. Always been good and never have a problem with it. Synthetic and not overly expensive.

I think i used drift filters ages and ages ago but havent been able to find them since so just went ryco but again no problems there either

Is it ok to run on Castrol Magnetec 10/40W & Ryco filters on R33 GTST?

Never seen a track or drag strip.. only used for normal daily drive.

How often do I drop the oil & change filter?

Can someone please advice.. thanks

Personally I prefer Fuchs 10w30 (you will find it at bursons) and I use Ryco or genuine filters.

You could run 10w40 if your car is ~150k km+ or sees track time.

daily driven and not thrashed change at 10k km, otherwise 5k km. If you do more long drives than short you can do the longer interval, if all short drives the shorter is better.

I change at 5k km as cheap insurance.

has anyone used the Nismo Verspeed 5w40 ? I have been using 300v all this time but over in this country its harder to get Motul... and I won 5 litres of Nismo at the drag racing comp here.

i am a bit worried to change the oil because 300v has been really good for me so far

the nismo stuff is good too. i've used it in japan. as you know I also have a big love of the 300V but the veruspeed stuff will be fine. hell it may even be some kind of motul re-branded.... there is a very close association between nismo and motul.....

Yeah I will give it a go, its expensive oil the Nismo stuff... will see how it goes. I will go back to Motul next year as I wont be buying Nismo

you are right. confirmed that the Nismo oil is Motul!!

Can you get Mobil 1 Synthetic oils Guilt ?

Sounds silly but when Porsche specify Mobil 1 Racing 4T 15W50 , which is bike oil , it cant be too bad . Aprilia and Triumph like it for sport bike apps as well .

A sport bike with the piss bags being flogged out of it is supposed to work its oil prety hard - high revs and big temp variations in their engines .

Since bikes tend to have the crutch in their oil , and a gearset as well , it can't have the friction modifiers like road car oil has . Has to stand on its own feet without being pasterised and homogonised so to speak .

Racing 4T synthetic also comes in 10W40 and 20W50 - second one for Harley earth moving equipment ...

A mate of mine works for a competition quad bike mob and I pay $16.20/L out of their 44 gal drum .

When you coming home and buying a "Tunemobile" van ? Maybe a table top with a dyno in the bed ?

Cheers A .

    • I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do
    • Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.
    • R34 RB25de Neo by the way ^ 
    • Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
