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

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
