You can still find japanese oem filters around rather than settle for thailand ones

Just thinking, how does Royal Purple compare to Redline?

group4 vs group5.

**ChaosMaster** · 11-09-2012 06:44 PM

Hmmm, from memory, Group 4 was better suited for Racing was it?

other way around, group5 is more race oriented like Motul

I'm thinking of trying Royal Purple next. Redline didn't make my engine as smooth as I'd hoped and it already feels like it's breaking down after about 1,000kms. If Royal Purple isn't any better I'll have to accept Redline is as good as it's gonna get.
