[integra95]

Hey guys,
I was just wondering what peoples opinion are for different oils. I have a 95 GSI and i was thinking of a 10W30 of maybe a 10W40 ne thoughts.
I was also thinking of Castrol Formula R

ide get mobil 10-40 synth s, its a semi synthetic and can be had for around $30 but it also depends on how many kms ya car has done as well.

[integra95]

Yea i put Mobil Super Synth in, i realised after that it was WAYYYY too thing lol, very silly move coz its 0W40 :( ....Ne1 know what Motul is like?
Cars done 134,000

[MR_PEA]

motul is a great oil,, but its expencive....
i think you should be fine with a 10-40 in semi synthetic...

0w-40 is fine for your car. If you are changing oil every 6 months, then a semi synthetic or a hydrocracked synthetic (cheap) like Castrol Formula R 5w-30 will be alright.

I put 10w-40 in my gsi. :thumbsup:

use OWS 5w 60 in mine and change it every 3000k's with filter and plugs, id rather pay for oil than parts its cheap insurance. There is a good Penrite out, Motul is very good especially in the 100% syn 300V chrono but its $80 a change. You need to look at your driving, and how tired your engine is. Ive done 12000k's since my rebuild and i would have changed the oil at least 12 times but many for running in. Hopefully the next change which is due will be for the dyno so i can get some real boost going!

Your car is a turbo, so 5w-60 is suitable. But if integra95's engine is still NA, then he'll need a less viscous oil. Each viscosity has its own applications.

yeah but turbo or not use a reputable oil why skimp to save $5 on a 5lt bottle of oil, if your going to be someone who does that you may as well buy a hyundai and save $10000 up front on purchase price of the car and then it doesn't matter what oil it still gonna drive shit

[civiceg9]

0-40w for my EG Civic, magnetic or mobil synth s
going to try the new Nulon Synethic oil later

aaron was not criticising your choice of brand,

he was criticising your irrelevant comment that you use 5w-60 oil in your turbo car, in response to a question about a stock NA car...

[shebangs]

I use 10w40 Motul. Love it. $48 a pop though.

[integra95]

Thanx for the tips guys, i went with with 10W30 Motul oil, so ill see how that goes over the next few months...Cheers
