Just recently purchased a Evo 9 MR. So I'm going to do a oil change these weekend any recommendation on what oil to buy for the motor? The cluster reads 108k

 

Keep it simple. Mobil 1 or Castrol Syn along w/a Fram "Ultra" filter

There are more than a few threads on this question. You will get many diff recommendations

 

Remember to get an OEM filter and crush washer.

You should also consider changing the drivetrain fluids (just so you know they were done and when you will have to do them next).

https://www.maperformance.com/ can hook you up with everything you need

 

Amsoil 10-40 synthetic oil only goes in mine and OEM filter and if I can't get a OEM filter or am out I use a wix oil filter I bought a full baggy of crush washers but honestly I have also reused them with no problems.
I would also do the spark plugs so you know they are fresh I do my plugs every 3k miles with my oil

 

I just bought Oem Mitsubishi oil filters and Mitsubishi OEM DiaQueen Transmission Fluid 75W85 for my 6 speed MR and NGK EVO 9 Laser Iridium Spark Plugs ILFR7H. What you guys think.

 

Yup sounds good also you could of just went with the copper plugs for like 2 bucks a plug there cheap it's why I do mine every 3k miles. It's piece of mind for me plus I run pretty high boost so it's better to keep them fresh

 

Thanks brother I'm new to these EVO life. So trying to take good care of it you know. I'm still undecided what motor oil to use. Any recommendation on what oil to use on the rear end?

 

Stock diaqueen in rear diff and transfer case is what I use and amsoil in my transmission and in my motor all I run is amsoil 10-40 full synthetic it's a little more expensive but is leaps ahead of most motor oils out there. I'll never run mobile 1 after seeing the problems that oil had burning in my Subaru sti granted that's an sti but still not good it burns like that in most subarus for some reason..

And we'll amsoil test results are always good also shel rotella T is a really good oil to its made for diesel vehicles and works good in turbo cars also

IMO it is so important when you buy a used performance vehicle to change all the fluids.
My friend didn't take my advice with his TT- 6 spd supra... and about 1 yr later he found out his trans fluid was low/missing..... found out the hard way

 

I'll throw my 2 cents in as well since it's always nice to get a variety of answers.

My Evo is Full bolt on Stock turbo w/ kelford cams at 95k miles.

Oil - Rotella T6 5W40 - readily available and I've never had an issue with it, Blackstone Labs testing after every change.

Filter - OEM always works, I've used everything from K&N (Skip it) to Wix

Always get the OEM crush washer for the plug.

OR

One of my favorite "upgrades" is the Fumoto Oil Drain Valve, makes Oil Changes slightly faster and a whole lot cleaner.

Trasnmission Fluid - Redline MT-85

Transfer Case - Redline Heavy Shockproof

Rear Diff - Redline Heavy Shockproof

 

Ill add since I have an MR and just did all the fluids however im at 30k , I use mobil 1 synthetic with an hks oil filter, and for my drivetrain fluids I ONLY use OEM transmission fluid for the 6 speed to many horror stories going with anything else, and also for trans case and diff is all oem no need for anything else. Spark Plugs are the Lazer Iridium (only put on less than 10k a year so I change them every year) and my oil drain plug is a Greddy Neo Magnet .

 

I'm a new evo owner myself. I'm just gona buy the 60k fluid kit from lancershop

 

My Evo MR

 

Looks good I would get the really vortex generator myself it the exact same color as mine hmm now that I think of it is apex silver the most common evo color lol

 

Thanks man and I also have these wheels for it 18x10+32 work emitz
