5-50W

5 is the starting viscosity .
50 is the working Viscosity.

If U REV your car to 8500 quite often .. then choose the engine oil at 30-40W

if not , then 50W is fine.

for track , it is okay to use 0-40W. However, NO good for ROAD use and need to change the engine oil atraight after the track day.
for Road Use, I prefer 10-40W. Less harm to the engine in the morning ( cold start ) .

I recommend Motul 300V 10-40W. although the engine will EAT a lot of engine oil , need to check regularly.

lol might be a bit late... but just go to hanny's in smithfield

Mobil 1 10-30W sitting in drums there.... just take an empty bottle.
10-30W isn't available everywhere....

Motul is good as well.. autobahn chatswood has it on the shelf...
just depends where you are. It's not sold everywhere.

It doesn't really matter what oil you use, just change it regularly.
I'll still dump a mineral oil in my car (although new cars shouldn't need it, it was reported that mineral oils were better for seals) - then if I drive it hard, change it around 2500kms to a synthetic.

A bit late but go Mobile 1 15w-50

Reason is it is a thick oil......takes longer for it to get to temp but will protect your engine a lot better than other grades cause of our hot climate and, i'm sure you to your service every 5000km . 15w-50 is what southen people use when taking there cars on Track days. eg(WRX's)

i got the Motul Turbolight 4100 10W40..
its a lot smoother nows.. so i gues its all gud

[type one]

castrol 5w-30 gets dirty very quickly... i find i need to change it every 4k... and im not in vtec that much at all...

currently using motul 10w-40 technosynthese 8100... im pretty happy with it... its what spoon uses LOL... actually they use the good stuff the 300v... but its $20 more expensive

i would recommend either... anything in a 5w-30 or 10w-40 range is fine for a civic.
