I been using greddy 5w-30 on my DE for the past 2 years. No complaints at all and great results after a regular 3-4 month oil change. Greddy oil is Group IV, PAO and Ester based Oil. I used to run mobil 1 5w-30 fully synthetic before Greddy. Every oil change I use an oem nissan oil filter.

Here's a pic of my head using greddy gr-3 5w30 after a couple of months. This pic was taken a year ago.

No sludge at all and very well taken care of.

For my USDM DE+T thats sitting in the garage waiting to be swapped I will mostlikely be using one of these oils: Greddy GR-2 5W-40, Motul, Eneos or Castrol Syntec 0W-30 European Formula (Made in Germany)

Dont flame on me just putting my input :-)

yes it is group 4 oil. you did your research =)

glad you like it. ive been running it on all the cars i have. even my brothers ep. its been doing well. one way to check the grade of oil. if you have an oil pressure gauge, see how long it will take till thepressure drops. from the time you first do the oil change. the viscosity stays alot longer on it. i did the comparison against mobil 1.

True. On that RPSportEngineering article (the aussie one) it did extremely well compared to almost everything else in the test. Valvoline Durablend did nearly as well for half the price, though. Mobil 1, eh, didn't do so hot =-\ I'd like to see some real test results on this GReddy stuff...

steve shadows · 04-23-2008, 12:43 PM

No Valvoline Durablend actaully did substantially better than all of them.

that was the kicker

I thought Durablend left a slightly longer scar.

You could have changed all the IMG tags to URL tags, or you could have just left out the pics.

You're an

that's why you have all those red squares. Stop acting like one and maybe people will be nicer to you.

Could have PM'd the guy about it too.

*S13Boosts* · 04-23-2008, 03:52 PM

I'm about to run it to on my redtop pretty soon, hooked up @ DTC holla..=)

MrChow · 04-23-2008, 04:25 PM

Chiming in here.

From Castrol Syntec to Royal Purple felt a different. Not huge but not small. Got better MPG and it felt like I got a lil power out it, like the engine wanted to rev easier.

Steve:
I got my friend to use Durablend on his KA too. Good stuff so far for him. I'm probably going to try it out on my change to see what different there is. Hopefully I'll save a few bucks.
What filter do you use?

Anto · 04-23-2008, 05:17 PM

Rotella 5w-40 kicks ass too

German Castrol is also some good stuff, I stopped running it because they stopped carrying it in my area.

I'm running mobil 1 0w-30 currently with a pureone filter.

I am not going to ask you anything, I am going to DEMAND that you knock it off if it is your intentions to remain an active member here.
Quoting a bunch of pictures to add nothing to the thread is among the most annoying things a user can do.

usdm180sx · 04-24-2008, 08:54 AM

For those who live in So Cal, Signal Auto does oil changes for $40. They use Neo synthetic and an OEM Nissan oil filter

Real car owners change there own oil. I get mine from NAPA, for 25$ and some change.

SHIFT_*grind* · 04-24-2008, 09:47 AM

Some "real car owners" also live in apartment complexes where you get fined for even opening your hood in the parking lot. FYI.
