Being a car enthusiast leads me to ask such silly and repeated questions just to insure that I get the best possible outcome for my car
for an engineer you seem to have a hard time deciding what oil to run when the owners manual clearly specifies what oil needs to be in there and what nissan recommends

jk bro


if you want simple, run either nissan's ester oil, redline 5w30, or mobil 1 0w40
those are all popular oils here on the fourms, just remember every motor is different so you will have to play around with oils in order to find one your car likes, what works for one person might not work for you, and as far as a filter goes, stick to name brands, K&N, Mobil 1, ect.

I personally run 0w40 M1 with a K&N HP1008 filter
