    I'm using Repsol elite comp 5W40 eng oil, works a treat.

    My car does not see the track often, but gets driven very hard none the less. I personally don't go for the really expensive stuff and always do a change every 5k kms.

    How much is the Repsol oil? If you don't mind me asking.

    From the page, "Nulon Long Life Coolant is a low silicate formulation". So it still has silicates and therefore it is a no-no. Get a bottle of Honda Type 2 coolant. Flush out the existing coolant and then refill with the Honda one. Anyway, the Nulon coolant is still better than having no coolant.

    Honda uses an alloy in the water pump that tends to attract the silicates which deposit as a gritty substance. Gritty substance + pump assembly = wear.

    Hmm, as much as I like Motul.... none of the 300V range is cost effective

    It is very good though!
