@hwfixiturself I used eneos 5w30 and the engine was very clean. its not made in china ether. its produced by Nippon oil USA inc in which becoming available at parts stores now. so its all about personal preference. to be fair Mobil 1 was okay, castrol edge was not that great because the engine burns oil rapidly. so all of these oils I mentioned have API certification anyway.

@1983ponyboy Also theyre the only ones that I know of that made a syn oil specificaly made for a Rotary engine

I personally prefer Idemitsu oils. They're the brand used by most Japanese auto manufactures as the factory fill (Well synthetic any way) I've ran it in my cars and torn apart the my engines and have never had sludge problems or any significant wear on bearings and the cross hatch was still on the cylinders. The most recent engine was my D15B with 250,000 miles on it.....In mho thats the test that counts, not dyno running....Im jus saying

okay why the fuck are you using 0w-50 oil in a car that requires a completely different viscosity oil?! how about you put some of the correct 5w-30 in the crankcase, run it, and see if your engine will last you another 10k miles. I wouldn't trust this crap, stick to mobil1, RP, castrol edge, the good stuff, not this made in china and sold in japan crap.

That need to look at the Greddy 5W-40 I like it for my 350Z

@gwalia4 I totally agree with you, I was about to say a similar thing. Of course 20W-50 is going to give you less power than a 0W-50 when its cold.

I like how they use the Royal Purple first so all that moly coats the engine. Then they stick that other stuff I've never heard of before in to take advantage of the moly from the RP. FAIL on so many levels.

[Ensilvanation]

Royal Purple is the shit! I stand by it all the way. It increased Hp by 9 in my GTO. It works. This Eneos oil is garbage.

They need to use same weight oil. Credibility of these folks is down the toilet. People who care about HP and mods understand the weight of the oil and how it effects power. Stop wasting time if you are not going to compare apples to apples. i would never buy eneos oil because i think they used different weight because with similar weight would have not seen any difference.
