Paul, I don't think I can make it today, buddy. I am going to have lunch with the Misses.

Sorry bud, see you tomorrow night?

 

dext0r- we got sad when you couldn't come and play so paul and i started a two man band. flaming fourz is still waiting though- we need a rehearsal soon!

fwiw, i would never put mobil 1 in my car again. that **** sucked. subarus are known for oil consumption and it was bad with mobil one. a lot of people who end up with spun bearings use m1 as well.

i use syntec or penzoil platinum. 10-40 in the summer and 10-30 in the winter. run it for 5k miles and have never had a problem.

 

...but my oil cap tells me to...



I so should have paid for the express shipping on the PS3......goddang ground shipping from California...

 

By any means, I'm not here to argue oil. But I know that which ever one you personally choose/like/love/have a hard-on for, being told not to believe teh mileage statements was made very clear to me. And with that, I go in peace.

 

sounds good.

 

mikie - clean up your coilovers before they end up like this

 

I respect the opinions of my buddies on this board (for this week, at least). Mainly because I don't hear a lot of unsupported, "i heared it on teh int4rweb," banter. After 60K miles, I have never noticed a significant drop in oil level with 5k mile Mobil 1 changes.

With that said, I think I will try out the Syntec product for the next change...I may even be persuaded to send some samples of both oils out for examination.



Paul, sorry I won't be making it today buddy...ya prolly think I suck.

 

+1 never with the Evo or previous vehicles..I'll most likely use it till I have reason not too, but Dave that would be interesting, maybe that would persuade me in changing..

 

I go by the same theory too, but I have seen Mobil 1 go down in viscosity and quality in the last few years. Since then I have been on Royal purple. I have also used the new oil Q. seems to work well too

 

Were these mounted up in a car that was parked for 2 years next to the Titanic in the bottom of teh ocean???

 

i may clean them tonight. they are still in my trunk bopping around.

i forgot how pleasant it is to drive a car that doesn't have 12k springs on it.

so what is the dealio for tomorrow? i heard linguines and i heard worcester. i'm fine with either. you guys are welcome to come out my way and hang out after dinner too.

dave- are you tired of having people over yet?

 

actually- what kind of coilovers are those? they look really similar to mine (prodrives, but they are made by HKS to prodrive's specs).

 

lol..mikie i was thinking the same thing..

 

ya, we can do dinner in the Woo if you guys want...give Katie a little break from company.

 

So....is Randy still alive or what???
