Hey i'm going to buy some oil from http://performancelub.com/ in about a week and it costs abotu $20 for shipping 5 litres so i figured if anyone wanted to order with me, we might be able to save on shipping a bit.

If you live on the Gold Coast and are keen, let me know and we'll organise a mutual shipping destination or something.

Anyhow if no one needs oil or wants to come in on this (the discount on shipping may well be minimal anyway) no worries, I'll place my order probably friday 13th July monday 9th july

(never mind the numbers below, there's no limit to this, other than i'd like to order by next friday and I can probably only cover a couple of people if need be, otherwise, i'll need cash up front)

Keen person / product / suburb

im keen mate for that. let me know what i need to do :domokun:

yeah you gotta buy the 5 separate quarts which is just under 5 litres all told which should be enough for most 'lines i think.

i'm still tossing up between royal purple or mobil 1. i'm running rp at the moment....doesn't really bother me tho, i'm doing my second oil change in 3,000 kms and will do another in another 3,000 when i move to redline after cleaning my engine with the early changes.

i'm thinking you can get whatever oil you want though as its just the shipping that we'll be splitting, so i suppose it's not technically a group buy.

depending on how many people go in, i'm happy to cover the full amount for everybody and have them pay me on pickup/delivery (i live on the goldy but work in the city just fyi if that helps anyone). i mean the worst that could happen is that i've got a heap of brand new oil that cost me less than retail....:S

i'll edit my first post and add a list there, - people that want in, just pm me, let me know what you want and where you live (just the suburb will do) and we'll organise it from there.

i said $20 for shipping 5 litres.

what you pay for each quart depends on what type of oil you want, hence the link to the website with said prices.

if you can find a better price, let me know cos i've looked

royal purple can be got for a similar price to the full price of the oil plus shipping from some autobarns. but they don't actually keep it on stock at most places and if they order it for you, it's $8 delivery. so it ends up being more than performancelub.com anyway, and i'd prefer to support this dude than autobarn.

this place is the cheapest around i have found for Royal Purple I have bought 20quarts and a set of NGK Iridium IX plugs from this guy, good seller good fast shipping i would highly recommend.

if you can get your royal purple / ngk cheaper anywhere else PLEASE LET ME KNOW!

otherwise this dude is awesome!

yeah man, i asked bursons how much for redline (cos they're one of the few places that stock it on the gold coast and was quoted $160 for 4 litres.

seriously check out the "The goods on oils" thread - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=22458

redline is the shiz, but you also pay for quality with this gear. also it will last longer than other oils (good for 7500-10000kms) so it actually works out not as expensive as it initially looks. thats why i'm using the cheaprer (rp or mobil1) to run through my engine for my sub 5000km changes before i start using the redline.

i know someone thast can get this gear cheaper i will get you prices on all redline and RP if you interested.

I "Wanna Buy Some Oil And Save On Shipping" but i dont wanna buy this shitty oil, anychance of getting Motul?

Shane I'm keen to know why you would say that royal purple oil is shitty?

Care to share with us your reasons or anything to back up your comments.

haha i was only stirrin the pot mate :woot:

personally i'll only use motul chrono v, and motul ff comp :w00t:

not stirring the pot or anything... but i'd happily go out on a limb and say redline is better than motul. but then again it does cost more, and the benefits....well depends who you talk to i guess - much of a muchness probably. I think, but don't quote me, that redline is the only group V oil you can get, while motul is a group IV.

granted royal purple is not in the same league though. in fact given the lack of info about rp i'm considering just going with mobil1 for my 'flush' oil.

    • I would like to add that at least in my car, the RPM gauge shows around 200RPM above of what I can see at nistune.
    • Unless you have big cams, there is no reason for an RB to idle at any more than the stock 650. No, it is not 850, 950, or anything else. It is 650. In fact, it might even be 550. I just opened an arbitrary stock Neo file in Nistune, and this is what I see
    • I love the undertray, especially the flappy bit for easier access for serving I'm thinking of fabing up one at work for the MX5 while I still have access to the metal shop at work with a guillotine and press brake Whilst removing the plastic undertray on the MX5 isn't to hard, I love the idea of a 2 bolt flap as opposed to removing the whole thing 
    • Great thank you for that. Yeah that is the bumper and spoiler it still has i just hadn't heard of it being referred to as a aero form bumper before. Really appreciate your help.
    • A little progress; I took the opportunity of an oil change to take a sample for oil analysis, will be interesting to see how it was treated for its first 125,000klm (I know how it has been treated since :rofl:) I went with 5w40 and will see what that does for oil pressure at higher revs. Also fitted the Z1 front undertray....a little more sturdy than the plastic factory one (although I suspect it won't stop a tree stump ) Nicest thing about it really is the 2 bolt "service panel"....a gift to the oil changer compared to removing 14 bolts holding the factory tray.
