FYI- both these shops have years of experience with VQ's..
If you go by APH, make sure to check out Ed's TT Built Block monster z33..
If you go by SS, make sure to check out Frank's AMUSED-OUT z33..

well, i had my oilchange done at the dealer today @ 2000kms, and i assumed they were going to put in nissan ester oil, but the mechanic poured in regular 5w30. I asked him about this and he said its fine for the break in period. I plan on changing the oil to motul 300v at 5000kms anyways.

My dealer told me that during the break in you should not use ester oil...

Strange... the car comes with this oil from the factory. Why would you not want it in the engine?

i thought this was odd too..... i think the mechanic thought i was going to flip out if i had to pay $18/L for an oilchange.....

Just curious, which dealer you plan to go to?

$105 for Nissan Ester Oil isn't bad.

OK first off Dealers are idiots plain and simple. Its possible some of them aren't but they are going to be the exception to the rule. Doesn't the vehicle come with Ester oil from the factory?

I believe Nissan Ester oil comes with the 370z....

Agreed that some dealers aren't the brightest bulbs....
