depends on a few things; like how you drive you are.

don't think there is much point in spending $200 on oil when you just drive the car normal and its not pushing much power.

I use Motul 300v Chrono cost me around $200 per oil change, and i will only use nissan filters or trust/hks items (that is if im not lazy and buy them before hand)

i did use to run mobile 1 full-synthetic and did not have any dramas.

again really just depends how much you want to spend.

FYI Ferrari use Shell oil, Jag & Aston Martins use castrol, Nismo uses motul oil (badge as nismo motul oil)

going to use motuls 300v on my next oil change. before that i was using castrol edges 10w-60 but i noticed that when starting up especially when its cold, the car had some trouble idling for a few seconds and sometimes i had to rev it a bit to idle. possibly cause the oil being too thick so might just get something a little thinner but still effective. oil filters, i stick with the genuine ones. felt like getting the NISMO veruspeed oil filter tho. has anyone used castrol edges 10w-60 before?

    • 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

    • Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
