What brand of oil

[aaronng]

Can anyone tell me the exact amount of oil a vtir integra takes with filter..

I didn't get a owners manual with the car

When you do an oil change, fill it up with 4 litres first and then check the dipstick after waiting about 3 minutes. Top up to the maximum mark.

Japanese OEM Honda oil is synthetic, while Australian OEM Honda oil is mineral..............
What Tatsuro Ichishima said does not apply to us since they get wine while we get piss.

It may not be synthetic but our car isnt JDM either therefore Australian-delivered Honda motors should be perfect with Australian OEM Honda oils.

Ask yourself why would they sell OEM Honda Oils at our dealers.

What does JDM have to do with using a synthetic over a mineral?
Ask yourself the same question when the oil is not made by Honda, but by Caltex and labeled for Honda.

I suggest you read the thread ----> "What brand of oil"

LMAO. Being synthetic or non-synthetic isnt the point . i didnt even mention to get synthetic or mineral oil in the first place ROFL

This is a Honda forum isnt it?...Why would you want to go out and stress about other different brands. You'll be drilling your head in thinking about which other brands to buy. There are lots of brands to begin with, stick to the basic with OEM Honda FEO, it is the best bet and the most simplest choice.

If its produced by Caltex, so be it, i dont give a rats ass as long as what Honda provides and within their specs im happy with it

You can just answer the question with a single sentence, or you can go deeper and explain the differences between the different types of oil that one brand uses and the differences between those different ranges so that the member can then make a choice with more information to guide him or her.

It is the point, especially when you are quoting Tatsuro Ichishima and his statement is based on JDM OEM oil which is synthetic and totally different to AUDM OEM oil.

Because this is a Honda forum. As enthusiasts, we all want our engine to be protected the best it can be. That is why WE ALL STRESS about whether there are better brands than OEM oil. If you are the type that goes for the simplest and not consider if it is the best for what you are asking of your engine, then what is the point of contributing to this thread since you would be recommending the easiest but not the best solution. Why do you think so many members buy Motul, Elf, Royal Purple, Amsoil, Mobil, Castrol oil when "simple" OEM oil is suitable (at least for the first 7000km on a stock engine )

If its produced by Caltex, so be it, i dont give a rats ass as long as what Honda provides and within their specs im happy with it

The specs for OEM oil used to be API SJ. They have now updated it to meet API SL. Sorry, but I want at least API SM for my engine.

errrrr because simple OEM oil is suitable, so far i havent heard of any OEM oil that F@#'s up an engine...hahahaha...what do you want to do? RACE it everyday like a dumbass who thinks a public road is a racetrack?.....well done mate.

Why would they make an OEM oil to F@#$ up an engine in the first place?

I think if you wanna get a bit more technical, hey, feel free to post EVERY oil brand in here and tell us all the cons and pros if you have plenty time to sit around the house/work coz im interested to read it all.....LMAO

By the way best of luck choosing the "Right" oil....Hahahahahaha.

It is the point, especially when you are quoting Tatsuro Ichishima and his statement is based on JDM OEM oil which is synthetic and totally different to AUDM OEM oil.

YES and you said they have fine wine and we piss on beer, its just an example i made how we dont have JDM machines (wine) and get a tuned-down AUDM machine (beer)...so whats your point????
You dont understand what im writing as an example do you? maybe you oughta go back to

Yes, OEM oil is suitable. But, the question is whether OEM oil is best value for your dollar? If I can get Castrol Edge 5w-30 for the same price as OEM oil (which we do regularly during Supercheapauto sales), then I will do so. Why? Because it protects the engine better and it also tends to resist the formation of gum deposits when you expose oil vapour that is recirculated through the PCV system back into the hot inlet ports and valves. I have even had one of my cars running mineral oil end up with a gummed injector because of this. You don't need to have to race your car illegally on the street to have a reason to go for good oil to protect your $20,000-50,000 investment (albeit a depreciating one). To put it simply, why would you eat mince beef everyday if you could have steak everyday at the same price?

Why don't you just use the search function? The pros and cons of each brand/model of oil has been discussed many times before. Otherwise there is always the bobistheoilguy forums where users have posted up their used oil analysis to compare metal wear.

By the way best of luck choosing the "Right" oil....Hahahahahaha.

Easy, the right oil is one in the price range that you are willing to spend and yet provides protection beyond what OEM oil can provide based on your driving habits and how well you treat your engine.

YES and you said they have fine wine and we piss on beer, its just an example i made how we dont have JDM machines (wine) and get a tuned-down AUDM machine (beer)...so whats your point????
You dont understand what im writing as an example do you? maybe you oughta go back to middle school chump

The point is, Ichishima's statement is based on someone buying expensive Group IV or Group V synthetic oil versus using JDM OEM oil (Group IV). Yet you decided to quote him as backing for your argument to use AUDM OEM (Group II) mineral oil. Now, that is very misleading to the other users here, especially those who know Ichishima's influence but don't know the context on which his statements were made.

You dont understand what im writing as an example do you? maybe you oughta go back to middle school chump

They say that people tend to start using insults when they are backed into a corner.
