Blown32: Your response is purely wrong and based on no empirical data. I can supply you with a non-detergent 30-weight oil...put that in your engine for 15,000 miles with no filter change and let me know how it goes. Do you know anything about the engine in the 370Z? What can you tell me about the valve actuation? Manufacturers test engines for many thousands of miles, some one million miles, on the same oil. They have clean-room environments, and repeatable test variables when they take oil samples. You, certainly, do not know what I am talking about! Unless you have "white paper" data, stay out. Opinion and consensus is best left to Al Gore and Global Warming.
