BTW, Nissan's ester oil is not a synthetic oil (it's supposedly a dino oil with ester additives).

This is the reason why so many threads exist on one topic... everybody here is an engineer. I am hoping no one comes across this thread looking for basic information as it looks like EVERYONE knows API or ILSAC approved oils are key for optimal performance in the 370Z. Thanks for the info.
