Nah there's a reason why we want ester for our cars...
well documented in the G37 world, the engine can tick due to the film breaking on the VVEL mechanism... The ester sticks to the hydrogenless diamond like coating we have on the moving parts of the engine stopping the ticking... It's why the Nissan Ester oil was created...
I don't abuse my car... we'll see how it goes with the RP... I may consider moving to Motul or Redline in the future...
