Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

In the words of someone, if its more than 50 bucks and about the right weight it'll be fine unless its a massive hp track monster

This^

But I still like using decent class 4 synth, especially when you get it for $50 on sale ;)

but thinner when oil is cold

Which is what you want, gets up and around all the moving parts in the head ASAP while there is no stress (assuming you aren't driving like a dick) to provide protection.

I know. But the price of that oil is $100 for five litres and it doesn't get cold enough here to warrant 0w IMO

5w 30 or 5w 50 does a great job here in Oz

Changed my oil today with the full syn Nulon 5W30 as always, anything that can stop mitsubishi lifters rattling like a diesel truck must be good stuff :D

Nulon 'full synth' isn't actually a true synth, unless it's Nulon racing.

What Greg said, I bought a couple bottles while it's cheap.

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
