How Much Do You Spend On A Oil Change ?

[89CAL]

I use motul 8100. Always been good and never have a problem with it. Synthetic and not overly expensive.

I think i used drift filters ages and ages ago but havent been able to find them since so just went ryco but again no problems there either

Is it ok to run on Castrol Magnetec 10/40W & Ryco filters on R33 GTST?

Never seen a track or drag strip.. only used for normal daily drive.

How often do I drop the oil & change filter?

Can someone please advice.. thanks

Personally I prefer Fuchs 10w30 (you will find it at bursons) and I use Ryco or genuine filters.

You could run 10w40 if your car is ~150k km+ or sees track time.

daily driven and not thrashed change at 10k km, otherwise 5k km. If you do more long drives than short you can do the longer interval, if all short drives the shorter is better.

I change at 5k km as cheap insurance.

has anyone used the Nismo Verspeed 5w40 ? I have been using 300v all this time but over in this country its harder to get Motul... and I won 5 litres of Nismo at the drag racing comp here.

i am a bit worried to change the oil because 300v has been really good for me so far

given that Motul is a French brand, I find it ironic that it would be harder to find over there, even in eastern Europe!

[PM-R33]

Agreed. Can't you import it from France, Germany, England etc? Surely it would be cheaper than what we pay here no?

motul 8100 excess, oil cahange - about 70 bucks with filter

am keen to get my hands on some Royal Purple though, tried and tested to be one of the, if not the best oil on the market.

the local distributor closed down trying to dodge tax...

so i will give the nismo oil a try... it costs twice as much as 300v does

Anyone have hard data on Motul shelf life in an opened but sealed drum?

Cheers

might turn out that it is Motul in a different container, since that is their factory fill.

the nismo stuff is good too. i've used it in japan. as you know I also have a big love of the 300V but the veruspeed stuff will be fine. hell it may even be some kind of motul re-branded.... there is a very close association between nismo and motul.....

[Guilt-Toy]

Yeah I will give it a go, its expensive oil the Nismo stuff... will see how it goes. I will go back to Motul next year as I wont be buying Nismo

Can you get Mobil 1 Synthetic oils Guilt ?

Sounds silly but when Porsche specify Mobil 1 Racing 4T 15W50 , which is bike oil , it cant be too bad . Aprilia and Triumph like it for sport bike apps as well .

A sport bike with the piss bags being flogged out of it is supposed to work its oil prety hard - high revs and big temp variations in their engines .

Since bikes tend to have the crutch in their oil , and a gearset as well , it can't have the friction modifiers like road car oil has . Has to stand on its own feet without being pasterised and homogonised so to speak .

Racing 4T synthetic also comes in 10W40 and 20W50 - second one for Harley earth moving equipment ...

A mate of mine works for a competition quad bike mob and I pay $16.20/L out of their 44 gal drum .

When you coming home and buying a "Tunemobile" van ? Maybe a table top with a dyno in the bed ?
