I use it all the time. Does the job pretty well. Don't know about the track work side of things though. Seems to take the punishment pretty well.

I'd say this oil would be pretty on par with Mobil 1.

Hahaha you type like a fresh of the boat asian.

I'm interested in your "oil sampling".

1. Is your RB25 Stagea a RB25DET?

2. Does it get driven hard or putted around/highway driving?

3. .....edited. Answer found.

To state that Fuch's Titan Supersyn is good for 20,000kms is a pretty big call, and I'd say it would have a lot to do with driving style.

I currently change mine at every 5000-7000kms and it comes out pretty black. If it is possible to run this oil at longer intervals then it would be fantastic, but is it possible?

yor not the first person to do UOAs. Post up you results I would like to see what contaminate levels you are getting. I use wearcheck. as for the the oil filter, thats correct - in fact this is true for the air filter also. SO people who change it more often are actually not doing themselves any favours, although most never listen.

Oil filter choice is important, I have found OEM Nissan and K&N to be quite good due to their constuction and materials used.

BTW there is a whoe oil thread for this!

Not necessarily a fob asian. I know plenty of fob euros/white people who talk like that - my friend from germany as an example.

20 000 ks is massive. Keymaker, I agree with you about driving style. Mods too - my car is fairly rich at the moment. When I do my oil change, the oil stinks of fuel, so it must be getting diluted by fuel. That's why I change it fairly often.

I use it all the time. Does the job pretty well. Don't know about the track work side of things though. Seems to take the punishment pretty well.

Lol yeah my comments on english were probably uncalled for, but were written with humour in mind, so no hard feelings. Sorry chuckie. It just helps when posts are more understandable.

As for oil, I might consider changing it at 10,000kms instead of 5000-7000 kms.

I've always been iffy whether I should change it at 10,000kms so I just changed it at 5000-7000kms.

      R34 GTT front hood lip

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!

      Potential MAP Reference Point

      By Radical_Goodspeed · Posted

      So I'm in the final stages of assembling my single turbo RB30/26 and had a question regarding MAP reference points.  I've seen several recommendations such as tapping the cylinder 2/3 ITB, tapping the intake manifold at cylinder 2/3, or using a point on IAC. First two are doable but require permanently modify part and the third is "out" as I plan to delete the IAC.  All that to say my question is can I used the "bleeder" in the center of the ballance tube as a MAP Reference? I'm running a catch can so I don't need it for the PCV system. My thought process is it "pulls" from all 6 cylinder, and it's between the ITB and the cylinders making it ideal for MAP reference according to what I can find. Thoughts?

      Some sense has prevailed! What kind of idiot spends money on intake, heads, and cams for a N/A motor in 2025? Lol. What maroons. Source:I am King Maroon.

      So, cams are not getting installed......yet  Had a good chat with MX5 Mania about intakes, they recommend not to get ITB's, they recommend a plenum style for the NC So, one of these puppies is being ordered, with a larger TB to suit, when it arrives from the US the car will go in for the cams and intake I'm also getting a fancy rear box bit for the air filter box which will suit the new TB size

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Clamp meter is pointless. Unless you're trying to keep average current under a set value for some weird reason (maybe you undersized your wiring?), then you'll get no useful info. What you're really trying to target is the flow of fuel coming back to the tank. You want some, but not a lot. You also want to make sure fuel pressure remains stable.   So, fuel pressure gauge, and fuel flow gauge. Set it up from that.
