We were planning to go... up until I got sick a few hours before Missed two parties that night.

If Kauz isn't doing a big order, then we just go get Amsoil from Action Autoparts on Evergreen Way. They have a bunch of good brands there. Just head north on Evergreen, it's on the corner of 92nd and Evergreen.

 

Work on a Sat FTL, work on Sat but being able to be on EvoM... FTW

 

i've hard that a couple times, but no one ever provides a link that explains.

i'm willing to switch to another synthetic oil, i'd just like some reasoning.

every oil change i revert back to royal purple because i'm happy with how she runs, it's purple, and i'm rather easy on my car.

can someone post a link to explain why royal purple is dirt?


i think i've heard of other 3s owners running amsoil, so i may look into that. i get confused reading about oil tests.

Same on the oil tests, I just run what other people have had success with. Im still running mobil1 10w-30 ... Thought about switching to motul but they don't/didn't have 10-30 so I didn't

 

If I was on a mild stock block/stock turbo setup I'd likely still be running NAPA Synthetic, which is basically the same as Valvoline synthetic, except on sale @ $2.50 or less a bottle.

 

Hey guys, yea I plan on doing a big order but it was a disaster (for me) last time.

I fronted all the money, had to drive around making deliveries, held product for weeks as people scrounged for money, and from the beginning I was trying to do others a favor with ZERO personal/monetary benefit.

This time it will be different, there will be a nominal charge ($1-3) and payment in advance. Not sure if people are happy with that change, but ultimately I never did it for personal gain and shouldnt have been put out so much.

 

this is why i stick with normal 10W-30 oil...everyone always says different things!

I may run amsoil though...what's the shelf-life on oil?

 

3 bucks!? You cheap Jew!! J/k, I remember you dealing with that. Tho I was not one of those people.

I will need to order oil soon, so hit me up when you're ready to place your order!
Thanks!

 

When dino's repopulate the earth, it crumbles to dust.

 

what from my post is the reason why you stick with normal 10w30? I'm not saying to run a different weight, just that I'd run NAPA synthetic (done by the parent company Ashland, which is also what Valvoline is). Again, this is for a mildly modded, well maintained car; also under the assumption it is running well with said oil.

@Ryan - I wasn't one of those people either, and in fact I paid for my products before they were ordered. If I have to pay for the fault of others then there are plenty of others that are with Amsoil. lmk!

 

@yahu - people say run 0w-30, 0w-40, 20w-50, 10w-30, 5w-30, 5w-40, -5w-117, etc., etc. brands i haven't looked into much so i've just stuck to mobil1 for now until someone orders amsoil and i can tag along to their order though

essentially everyone has a different opinion so i've just stuck to stock oil weights and such for now. people suggested going 0w-30 or 5w-30 for winters and 10w-40 or 20w-50 for summer but i've yet to try anything else. pretty much one person will tell me one thing, i'll do some research and there will be a bunch of people disagreeing with that person, back and forth back and forth etc., etc

 

You were granted executive access to the cresent of oil.

Also, I didnt give any names as none were needed. It was just a big hastle.

A good time to get everybody stuff would be at the dyno-day on the 19th when i'll be there for a tune....... hint hint.....

 

thanks for posting up everyone. i'm thinking about running redline. even though the price tag on an oil change will be twice what i'm used to. i'll shoot you a pm kauz.

Just did an oil change with amsoil 5w-30 and I'm liking it.

 

I can get cases of Kendall oil pretty cheap if anyone is ever interested? Essentially the same as Brad Penn oil. I run 20w50 most of the year and 10w40 in the winter months (which is maybe 2 oil changes)
