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)
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.
