The Royal Purple oil is a full synthetic oil whereas your Motul turbolight is only a blended semi synthetic.

I guess it's what you like to use so best to stick with it.

Tests against other oils have shown a 5hp gain by using Royal Purple against other high end oils.

Ok so here are the group buy prices:

Pretty much exclusive to Brisbane guys

Prices Include Shipping to 1 point Brisbane city and are based on buying the 5Litre bottles in lots of 4, 8, 12, 16 etc.

Royal Purple Motor Oil 5W-30 5L $66 ($13.20/L)

Royal Purple Motor Oil 10W-40 5L $66 ($13.20/L)

Royal Purple Motor Oil 5W-30 208L $2360 ($11.30/L)

Royal Purple Motor Oil 10W-40 208L $2360 ($11.30/L)

Royal Purple Racing Oil 0W-10/5W-20 5L $114

There has been some talk with some of the SAU Queensland members If we could get 8 of us to go 8 ways in a 208L drum it brings the oil down to $11.30 per litre but would be a bit of screwing around splitting it up.

Send me a PM if your interested!

Cheers,

just 1 x 5 litre

can you get gear (diff) oil at the same time??

Yep can get all the RP Products :thumbsup:

Gonna setup a proper group buy in the trading section just gotta work it all out should be up in a few hours

haha - are you a saffa??

ps here are my calcs for your enjoyment :thumbsup:

motul turbolight 10w40:

$48 for 5 litres = $9.60/litre

somecrazyexxyoilcosyourcardeservesthebest:

$25 for 0.946 litres = $26.42

so based on the fact that I think motul is awesome last option is exxy imo :P

I concur.

I concur.

You are comparing a medium grade semi synthetic oil to a higher grade full synthetic oil.

compare apples with apples.

Castrol Magnatec is as good as Motul Turbolight 4100 and it's $10 cheaper a bottle. Why doesn't everyone just go buy that?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
