What Oil to use in the Skyline.

[JXL]

Yes i know its a bit of cheap question but i actually did a search and no topics came back.

Just wondering what's the concensus on engine oil?

Mobile 1 - has a 5 viscus rating from what i know smaller number means thinner consistency only one from the shelves i've seen with a 5 viscus. about $55

Caltex Magnatec - 10 viscus rating but does all that stuff they talk about reducing engine wear at start up actually work. about $45

RedLine Oil if you can afford it but i can't so i can't put it in the discussion, i got told its like $120 a 5L bottle.

i see so many topics about what petrol to use but nothing for oil.

thanks

There are so many threads on oil. I like Motul 300v but that's probably out of your price range.

No offence buts that’s BS... either you are typing in the completely wrong thing or I don’t know what’s going on. Do a proper search for maybe like "service" or even just browse through the maintenance area.
