I've been using Amsoil fully synthetic motor oil on my Rb25det s1 powered s13 and the only place i could find it localy without having to pre order it is from a transmission shop, local and about 5 mins away from my house.

So today i drove to the shop to get me some "Amsoil" as i ussualy do when i change my oil and they said that they were changing to another product.... this Product is called Total fully synthetic motor oil.

dont know much about it but the shop told me its supose to be equivalent or even better than Amsoil .

I went to there web site and it mainly says its used on European cars and its a low emmision product....my car isnt european ahahaha wut the..... but i have 5 quarts comming for me tommorow.

Total Have been around for many years ,

just not here in Australia.

much like ELF ,did a lot of work in 80s with F1

just read all info that you can find on oil of your Choice .

Cheer`s Chuckie.

Saying Amsoil or any other brand doesn't mean much as they have more than one product.... You should find out which Amsoil you're running then check the specs against the Total oil they are offering.

My 2cents worth.

Well Total oils are good stuff. I myself been using Royal Purple fully syn. So long as you are using not just the viscosity (15W/40) the API Spec must also be equal or higher.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
