Penrite 10-60w FTW.. semi syn ... pretty good for its price too.

and that K&N oil filter is boss man ..how much that set u back?

i knw it costs more than your standard RYCO/COOPERS ...

Isn't 60 is bit too thick to be ideal during operating temp? Thinner the better, more leak but more lube.

If you want semi-syn, my choice is Mobil 2000 10w40

good all rounder.

Where's the proof to support your claim about Magnatec, and what makes you so sure he Mobil is superior?

Serious question because I use Magnatec in my DD.

would be mostly dino with modifiers

Prooforyourefullofshit...

Castrol would have interesting law suite on their hands if they are miss representing a product on their website claiming its semi synthetic when it's not...

[Bludger]

Which is why it's "semi" synthetic... idiot answered his own question...

Sorry for hijacking, but just a quick question, what should i use in my D16y4? Healthy engine 140k.

[Bludger]

budget?

[nguyenimproved]

Good value. Not looking for cheap or expensive stuff :/

$50+-10?

Something that'll work well. New to oils and stuff~

[Bludger]

mobil 2000.

can't go wrong.

Read PDF in the above link mate! Surprise performer would be valvoline a dura blend 10w -40. Performed far better than many high end oils.

I think I'll switch to that stuff for all my family vehicles, it's cheaper then magnatec...

not quite sure about the dura blend of valvoline but didn't have good experience with the valvoline engine armour 10w-40~

the mobil 2000 goes great in my previous dc4 integra

now running with 10w-50 full syn of penrite in my unhealthy EG5 for 3500km already~
it burns much less oil than the 10w-40 and couldn't really feel the thickness from it compare to the 10w-40 I used before, but better oil pressure value on my gauge even after some fast driving that brought the oil temp up to 110'c

after reading the pdf file above I think I will give that yellow bottle Pennzoil a try~or maybe the dura blend next

[blabla]

has anyone used the Valvoline Durablend? im thinking of getting it looking at either 10-30 or 10-40 engines got 200 000 on it will be taking it in for major in the next few months.
