My gtr has used Castrol Edge 10w-60 since the previous owner had the motor built by Willall Racing.

I've done 2 oil changes (with nissan filters) in the 5 months/1000km of me owning it and never had any problems.

Have you got a oil cooler yet?

Hopefully I will have mine before the drags.

40+ every day during january, sometimes hotter

holy bollocks. thats pretty hot. :) if you really wanna get an accurate answer your best bet would be to get in contact with the oil company themselves. They do rigorous testing with their oils. send them an email on what type of car it is, engine type, and they'll also wannna know the different weather patterns in your location. sometimes we do it where i work. were swapping over the oil in one of our ships which is coming over from Alaska which will now be stationed in Northern Territory and surrounding asian countries. We also have to upgrade the cooling system too.

This might be helpful for some.

Let me know if the link doesnt work..

Buying good and reliable oil can save you $$$ of engine problems and ect.

Oil just aint oil. The stuff kittles use in my car is some castrol 10-40 crap and i can chew it in 1,200k's easy driving.

What ever you do Leeboi, dont use cheap shit. Tho ive heard to use castrol edge formula R 10w60 man. Its heavyish and would decrease how much you chew. Give it a wirl. Im going to go towards Motul 300V. But im still got 3000 k's to decide :action-smiley-069:

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
