Who Uses Motul

[spence-GTR]

who uses motul oil in there rb26 what do you think and wheres the best place to get it at a good price and what do you pay?

Generally for a GTR, you'd want the 300V Chrono variant of Motul, theres the regular 10w40 for road use and the 15w50 competition version for occasional track use. the best place for general consumers is Repco when they have their 20% off sales on Motul fluids.

Judging from your car description, perhaps ask your tuner what oil is best for the mods and power your car is running

im a big fan of nulon, i use 100% synthetic 10-40, good stuff, but ill always use motul gearbox fluid, it works wonders

i use motul turbolight 4100 10w40

would run 300v but i run e85 fairly often and it's not good for to use it with ethanol

Hi mate, I'm from Motul Australia, if you want to send through the specs of your GT-R and the type of use, happy to advise which type of Motul oil would be best for your car. Send via PM if you prefer.

Cheers

I just put Motul Chrono 300v 10w40 for my R32 GTR - on the weekend. I think it's great stuff. It would want to be for $150. Got it from repco - 6 litres. I chose this as its a group 5 Oil, full synthetic, cool bottle etc etc ;-)

I would use the 15w 50 for more track /harsher driving in the motul.
