Oil change prices

I've been using motul from inception (15k km to 39 kkm) and my tuner said I must have a very healthy engine.

I guess I don't drive it hard enough =X

I've never used it;but have heard it is a very good oil/with a lot more synthetic properties than the other's.
not sure about Redline? heard it was good-but haven't researched it.....being almost 50/learned a lot about these so called 100% or Fully synthetic oils over the past year or so & have learned how much "synthetic" is really in these oils & what classifies an oil as "synthetic".....i'll leave it at that.

im on redline 5w30(ester based syn) and a Purolator PSL 14610 which is for syn oils. many of syns are not ester based as Nissan recommends.

I completed the oil change today with redline and noticed my engine idles much quieter, no more valve noise on cold starts. This was my first oil change with my Z as its new to me, so I'm not sure what was in it before.

this is such a vast "discussion" topic. Nissan also recommends mobil1, fortunately

Oil change every 5000 miles, Mobil 1. Just like it says in the manual.

Nissan hasn't recommended ester oil for the Z since 2010.
