Hey guys/gals,

I have been trying to search around. Just cant seem to find any DIRECT info on an R33 GTR for engine oil.

I just bought the 'line a day ago... so far i changed the plugsnd cleaned the filters. just looking at doing n oil change.

now it runs atm up to 20PSI. and has around 400HP.

I was thinking something along the lines of Royal Purple or Motul. Any suggestions??

Also, i will be wanting to take my GTR to a performance shop to do the 100km Service. Im located in Sydney South (Campbelltown Region)

Any shops you guys recommend for the service??

Cheers,

Elliott

Have you seen the sticky - big read but some good info in there: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Go...ils-t22458.html

Royal purple, Motul 8100, Castrol Edge (ex Formula R) etc etc - just make sure appropriate weights for the application and they should keep the dreaded bearing knock away.

I'd concentrate on the last 10 pages of that thread. Castrol Edge isn't mentioned really, so I would not have that as an option for a GTR.

It all comes down to what weight you want to run. Then go with a full synthetic, not a faux synthetic like Castrol Edge.

Options would be Motul 300V Chrono (this is 10w40), Royal Purple, Gulf Western Sougi S 6000, as well as what FUCHS and Redline offer.

You're running some serious PSI and HP in that car, so don't skimp on the oil.

Quick question guys,

Anyone know of any reputable performance shops In south-western sydney area... that will do my "100,000km service" on my GTR?? (i might be thinking CRD but it is a bit of a travel)

Only at around 80 or so thousand k's but want to get it done soon as i just bought the car. want it all done :)

Cheers

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
