I am very satisfied, spear(until I know your name, I'm forced to call you this ). Car is very quiet at idle. No valvetrain noise what so ever. Really good stuff!

Also, (I believe) the Nissan ester oil is regular oil with ester additive. Redline is synthetic AND it's based off polyol ester. So it's win win and $3 cheaper than the Nissan's "magic oil" per quart.

On the rally we had a top Ferrari technician and one of the Nissan North America proving grounds technicians who both expressed their positive thoughts of Redline fluids.

Absolutely not. I have been using it since 3600 miles and I just crossed over 10500 miles. My car is running very smooth.

No particular reason other than it's a reputable oil with a good track record. If Nissan has engineered a truly revolutionary oil then I think they'd be doing more to capitalize on it. Seems like there's still a lot of obscurity surrounding their Ester Oil.
