You better turn around and run the other way while you still have a chance!

Oil has been one of the most horse-beaten topics on here and it usually gets ugly.

I changed my oil 4k ago and used Mobil 1 5W-30 and I have zero issues. I used to run Nissan's Ester oil but decided my budget was more important and Mobil 1 is always recommended for all other cars, even the GTR. So it's good enough for me.

I used Mobil 1 once. Two days later I got cancer and a dingo ate my baby. :( These results aren't typical and you could have a better outcome than I did.

Probably as good as anything.

Personally, I won't use an engine oil unless I've seen it specifically advertised on the side of a NASCAR car driven by someone who is in the top five in the point standings, and who has been in at least one infield fist fight.

Thanks footloose. I think I give it a try with Mobil 1. Actually I used Mobil 1 extended performance last couple of year for my lexus is350 I never get any trouble. Yeah should be ok. Most of the z owners here using redline. I mostly exchange my oil every 3k. Thanks guys!!
