Only reason Nissan was recommending the Ester oil, based on the article, is due to the DLC coating in the valve train. I have owned guns with the DLC coating and I used to use grease as a lubricant because the oil would not create a film on the coated parts. Their oil is supposed to bond to the DLC thereby creating less friction. Not sure if the GTR has DLC coated parts but I am guessing that it does not based on the full synthetic recommendation.
