Agree with above approach. I recall reading on SAU years ago of people spending hundreds on Motul Chrono 300V and changing it every 5000kms of street driving on their mildly modded car... Most likely this is overkill for the street and a waste of money but as they say; a fool and his money are easily....

I've actually tried 300v for 2 services so around 12k kms....man, it goes black by around the 4500kms mark. Although it is very light and car may seem more responsive.....I personally think it's definitely for track cars and not for road use.

All this talk inspired me to look for a different filter. I used to use Amsoil and later Fram filters on my Maxima. Hard to find here in Australia, though I managed to get all my Amsoil stuff through Bill Reid from Lubrication Management. I ended up stocking up on Fram XG series oil filters (3 for AUD$60 from a US eBay shop) as well as a couple Fram air filters and a cabin filter while I was at it, just to make the shipping worthwhile.

All in all, I just forked out AUD$155 for six filters after the seller got back to me to advise that he was able to reduce the total postage by a further $33. Colour me impressed (and ready for the next service). :)

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too.

That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high?
