oil huh, there is a huge thread and every man and his dog has an opinion.

for me, 5w40 for winter. protecting the engine with the thinner oil with the cooler startup. 10w40 in summer, hotter weather allows for the ticker oil on start up and wont burn off with the warmer weather.

10w50 if you run it off the rev limiter or track it one a month / hills.

had a great time last night, again so many people to talk to. couple of faces I hadn't seen in a while.

felt no motivation to leave home. so i jumped in bed at like 10 and stared at the ceiling for ages domokun.gif

If Kaz could drive from the west side then I'm sure you could have as well instead of being at home foreveralone.

haha yes I am winnar.. all you Westies/Northsiders = FAIL

Im using 10W40 Motul Turbolight in both cars atm and I think its burning off like a mutha :< GRR

as soon as I figure out htf to get the oil filter off the S15 (kjghgfhjgff!!).. I'm gonna change it.. again :<

I think the 8100 used to be better but then thats 0W40! Have been told at Nats that Turbolight is like water..

Grant you can pick me up :D I'm GTR-less

If you're ok with at least 70rwkw down in power!

And not keen on taking your crotch rocket out?

Indeed. Was chasing him, he can drive that is for sure.

If Michael (miguelone) doesn't slow both of us up, Chris would kill me both in Esplanade and Arthurs Seat.

Give it till after I get my tax return next year, I'll have a turbo manual 2 door 31.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
