[hippy]

theres been a 100 threads on this ... no oil is really better than the other .. u just gotta try it urself ... just make sure its fully synthetic ...

[Guest RedLineGTR]

yep search the forums bro. it all comes down to how much u can spend. Use oil no higher than these ranges (no higher than)10W-XXW for the lowest rating and no higher than XXW-50W.

The Nissan guide recommends at 7.5-30w rating for the oil since its for a new motor its also hard to get some most people are running 5-40w, 5-30w -0-30w 0-40w 5-50w. Your choice. Check the thread buy the search button. You will find over 50pages of stuff to read. Also check google on oil myths good info if u have time to read it.

I'm using Motul atm. Don't notice anything different from Mobil 1, except a heavier wallet.

Yeah im using the new mobil 1. its Verry Good. I recon $70 is a bit steap... but my car isn't burning oil so i guess its ok

[hippy]

i've used castrol gtxt, and penzoil .. both good i guess nothing went wrong .. next i'll try mobil 1

Hi all just thought i might add my 2 cents

I have used nearly every oil under the sun Mobil, Penrite, Shell,AGIP,Motul,Caltex.... the list goes on.

I think that the best way too check if an oil works for you is check the state of the oil when you change it...Colour, rub it between ur finger etc...

I have noticed that the racing oils like AGIP and Motul that i have used are only good for sorter periods then 5000KM, like a track day/weekend and then change it. But they do work really well for that time!!!

Till now i have noticed that Mobile 1 is the only oil that has kept its original characteristics...well closer than any of the others over the 5000KM.

So i use Mobil1 most off the time and then put in some Motul if im doing some track/skidpan time.

MOTUL

[nizmo101]

i have been using shell helix plus. oil seems to stay pretty good when i change it, i change it every 5000km though

[SLY33]

i use mobil 1 / motul 6100. Ive recently heard that the motul is a higher "grade" oil than the mobil stuff. I dont know exactly what that means but... Also was told the new mobil 1 super syn isnt worth the dollars.

havent done any tests, just what ive heard. But with most of us changing every 5000kms its prob not that important.

[Guest RedLineGTR]

mobil 1 is over priced for what it is and how it is made...advertising and everything costs money where else can it go. Motul oil refering to the 8100 model 5-40w rating is reasonably priced and preforms like a top oil for a good price...motul have another branded model which is 300v which is made specifically for race and indurance races track work/drag etc... this is a specific oil for this purpose motul 5w-40w is a good all rounder. The 8100 model is as close as u will get to the best motul oil (300V) without paying 40bucks for 2 litres(300v) motlu 8100 cost about $55 and is priced quite good for how it is designed and created compaired to the competitors..

[Guest RedLineGTR]

my 2 cents..it all comes down to your budget. if i had the money i would be using redline or royal purple since i know how it is made and why it is priced so high. Cheers Rob

I use Conoco

Why dont i hear of anyone using magnatec?

castrol gtx magnatec.. 10w 40

?

sounds good to me and lots of research has gone into it

[AutoTrust]

Go FUCHS yourself, I did and I like it, 5W50 Titan super Syn. Below budget and sounds like something you'd like to do with Jennifer Garner!

Because Magnatec is a mineral oil and breaks down a lot easier than synthetics in turbo engines. I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. All of its virtues of "sticking" to upper engine parts are also apparent in any other good quality oil. "Magnatec" is pure marketing!
