81gSKy Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 If you're getting Castrol, it has to be German Castrol Syntec in either green or gold liquid.

SS- Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I have 2 bottles of the castrol sport edge 5w30 can sell to you cheap? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428108-is-it-castrol-edge-or-edge-sport/#findComment-6917135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS8_Gohan Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 pretty sure it's the sport. If you're running E85 i believe edge sport is the one you should really run (SN spec), otherwise i don't think it matters too much as long as you have the correct weight/viscosity. Given your username and you said GTR, i'd go with the 10w60 Edge.

KamikazeNinja34 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 mmmm I don't use castrol so I can't distinguish between the two. but you don't wanna cut corners on oil. For what its worth I only put Motul in my car, its int the same ~$80/5L price bracket unless you get the 300V variant.

500hp Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Use royal purple 10/40 the best Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428108-is-it-castrol-edge-or-edge-sport/#findComment-6922690 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buraz Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Use royal purple 10/40 the bestDon't know whats best man!! I used that exact one, was told to change to edge as oil pressure wasn't high enough or something like that during dyno tuning, this was years ago now can't exactky remember. I'm not saying this is the best, it's just what iv been advised to use by my workshop for gtr's. There's definitely lots of oils to choose from, don't wanna turn this into an oil debate, plenty of those on this forum.

500hp Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 No man that's perfect the standard oil Is 7/30 dude 10/4o royal purple is the stuff.
