Im doing a service on my car soon and want to put the best oil i can find in it, mainly to test the differences between the oil im using now, and the 300v. And also for ofcourse, performance.

Does anyone know somewhere that stocks Motul 300v, preferrably in Brisbane.

Went to Stones corner autobahn today, they have the 300V Competition and 300V Chrono

which is 15w-50 and 10w-40 respectively

it was around $20 a litre

They didnt have the 300V Power Racing 5w-30, which i wanted to use

So ill go with 300V Chrono which is a bit thicker and holds temp a little higher compared to the 7.5-35 (mineral:( ) i have in my car now.

Its the standard nissan oil that gavin woods put in, didnt really want it but it was put in anyway 1500km ago.

Will be interesting to see how good the 300v is ;)

At the moment im focused on Motul, mainly because ive read so much good about them not to mention they're japans most preffered performance oil :D

See how things go with the 300v Chrono when i do the oil change sometime next week.. Will post here how it went, how much etc etc

I honestly think that we all spend too much time and money making our cars look good, and forget that it needs to run good too.

For those who know, My cars booked in for monday for panel repairs. Then off to DMD for some new bits and pieces :)

i have heard only good things about the 300V chrono

Indeed, it had sold out when i went there, he said what car? i said skyline

He just smiled and nodded his head in approval.

it was $40 for 2L i think or there abouts

the 5L of 300v competition were about $78

Yep, motul 300V is definitely one of the best oils you can get for under $100. Ive seen plenty of used oil analysis results of cars using Redline, and most of them arent that great. Frankly I reckon Mobil 1 Supersyn does a better job than Redline, in all but extreme conditions.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
