Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

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.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.
