5w30 Oil for 370z

Nor me. But I've used Mobil 1 and I can make the same statement. This doesn't help those that look to the internet forums for the 'best' oil. The best

Nor me. But I've used Mobil 1 and I can make the same statement. This doesn't help those that look to the internet forums for the 'best' oil. The best oil for our Z's is simple - API SM or SN 5W30. Source: Nissan engineers. Others will say 0W20 for any type of engine, NA or FI, because it removes heat better due to higher flow i.e. less viscous. Whatever. At the end of the day, as long as the oil is API certified, dino or synthetic, it all works. I have yet to see an oil company under a court order or voluntarily remove their oil from the shelves because it was a 'bad' batch causing premature engine wear and/or failure. Something for all to think about.
