The advantage to the Advanced Auto Parts deal is you get a premium filter as well. Current deal is running for 5qt Castrol Edge + K&N filter for $32.99. I choose the HP-1010 which is the extended version of the HP-1008. The filter goes for $14 by itself!

I personally like Amsoil, but they are expensive

Ya if you catch Autozone or whatever store when they are promoting that brand it's a good deal for sure. I use that GTR filter too. If you can't get that deal Walmart FTW.

Last week I changed the oil in my Z for the first time. I chose Greddy GR-3 oil and Fram Tough Guard filter.
