Can't wait to try it can't justify spending 100 bucks on oil for big name stuff

I strongly doubt that a change in oil to a different brand of fully syntheticc oil will result in a rebuild :whistling:

No but running a cheap oil thats not right for the job in `st place is Paul weather here & run 5w30 pinch.gif

Its only cheap because its on special, United 1 5w50 in normally over $70 per 5ltr pack. Its a full PAO and Ester synthetic, not a hydrocrack mineral oil

United Oil is not a small back yard company, they are Quality assured and API licensed and bigger than most of the brand names you know of in Australia. Also have a complete range of double ester engine and gear oils.

Guys, dont get caught up in brand name hype!

Bringing up a old thread changed to the united 1 oil 5w50 from ash. It's fully synth and so far it has been great I now have good oil pressure on cold starts (70psi approx) and on idle it now is about 40psi instead of 25. So far I highly rate this oil and for half the price of royal purple etc I don't think I'll ever look back. If ash is still doing a bulk deal I will buying in bulk in the very near future.

Once again thanks ash

Does United Oil make any 10w40, if not would it make much difference running 5w50 vs 10w40 ?

I guess that 6x5L for $200 deal is long gone >_<

I think i's a 5W50 and 10W60.

PM Ash he'll tell you if it's still available. I have a few 5L bottles from my buy if the deal isn't still on :thumbsup:

Yes the 5w50 is fine and so is the 10w60

The reason I went for the 5w50 was price and the fact that it doesn't get track work. However 5w50 is fine for track also. Go to www.unitedoil.net.au and use the contact us form and ash will reply

Glad your happy luvpsi

Sorry for the late reply, I have been offline for about a year.

We only have Ultimax 10w60 and United1 5w50 in full PAO/Ester synthetics available in Australia. We do make a wide range internationally but we only bring in these 2.

Also have the United 171 Double Ester 5w40

I do have group 3 Hydrocracked synthetics in 0w20, 5w30, 5w40 and 10w40

I can still offer the old special at $200 for 6 x 5ltr United 1 5w50 PAO/Ester

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
