Update: Mileage 5850

Just got back and the differential and gearbox actually improved!

As posted to another thread motul motor oil

I used 8100 Econergy 5W 30 with a Nismo Veruspeed fliter as supplied by Z1 Motorsports on my recent long distance trip. On the first leg I was using 5W30 Mobil 1 and a Nissan OE filter. On my return trip I changed over to Motul and the Nismo Veruspeed. There was a 15 degree difference in oil temp with the Mobil 1 at 220F (max) and the Motul at 205F (max). Both were the same routes and extended duration high speed interstate travel. Good stuff!

Update mileage 32800

Traded in today with sadness. She turned out to be a dependable daily driver with a unique personality. NO major mechanical or systems problems EVER!

I'll miss her.
