I use it all the time. Does the job pretty well. Don't know about the track work side of things though. Seems to take the punishment pretty well.

I'd say this oil would be pretty on par with Mobil 1.

Hahaha you type like a fresh of the boat asian.

I'm interested in your "oil sampling".

1. Is your RB25 Stagea a RB25DET?

2. Does it get driven hard or putted around/highway driving?

3. .....edited. Answer found.

To state that Fuch's Titan Supersyn is good for 20,000kms is a pretty big call, and I'd say it would have a lot to do with driving style.

I currently change mine at every 5000-7000kms and it comes out pretty black. If it is possible to run this oil at longer intervals then it would be fantastic, but is it possible?

yor not the first person to do UOAs. Post up you results I would like to see what contaminate levels you are getting. I use wearcheck. as for the the oil filter, thats correct - in fact this is true for the air filter also. SO people who change it more often are actually not doing themselves any favours, although most never listen.

Oil filter choice is important, I have found OEM Nissan and K&N to be quite good due to their constuction and materials used.

BTW there is a whoe oil thread for this!

Not necessarily a fob asian. I know plenty of fob euros/white people who talk like that - my friend from germany as an example.

20 000 ks is massive. Keymaker, I agree with you about driving style. Mods too - my car is fairly rich at the moment. When I do my oil change, the oil stinks of fuel, so it must be getting diluted by fuel. That's why I change it fairly often.

I use it all the time. Does the job pretty well. Don't know about the track work side of things though. Seems to take the punishment pretty well.

Lol yeah my comments on english were probably uncalled for, but were written with humour in mind, so no hard feelings. Sorry chuckie. It just helps when posts are more understandable.

As for oil, I might consider changing it at 10,000kms instead of 5000-7000 kms.

I've always been iffy whether I should change it at 10,000kms so I just changed it at 5000-7000kms.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
