Nissan 370Z Forum  

Where do you get your oil change?

Private / personal mechanic. I buy redline oil at a rare store that carries it and at a great price.

That is good to know thanks for the heads up. I got mine in the 12 pack on amazon but it was still 11.90 a quart

Here on Long Island I just go by forum sponsor Real Auto Dynamics for service as the dealerships are clueless about Z's 99 out of 100 times.

Local Nissan Dealer. I went earlier this month and switched over to Mobil 1. Tech comes into lounge and asks "whos Z?". Started chatting - he owns a lightly modded one as well. He was asking about my F.I. exhaust. Pretty cool guy. I'd do it myself but since moving into my own place, I have no space to really work on the car. I feel much better about taking her to the dealer after I met the tech.
