Im going to change my Oil in my 00 gsr (91k), (just got this car). Im wondering what filter and brand of oil do you guys use on your tegs? The guy I bought it from went to the dealer for oil changes, but I just couldnt live with myself if I did that.

and yeah Hi Im new.

 

AMZOIL

no other synthetic oil company offers near the protection and filtration than AMZOIL 35,000 miles between changes with filter every 7500 miles. First time I tried the stuff ($9.00 qt) my mileage increased by 3mpg.

unfortunately im not running synthetic, and I dont know about switching it now with 91k miles. But yeah AMZOIL is amazing oil for sure.

 

Castrol 10/30 (hot Florida climate) with Puralator PureOne oil filter ever 4-5K miles. Seems to work, the engine is clean as a whistle inside and I have over 304K miles.

 

K&N performance gold.....wit mobile 10-30w full synthetic

 

Last oil change i used quaker state oil and filter because the oil was on sale and they also threw in the filter for free.

 

castrol GTW high mileage for me, and definately FRAM filter.... "GOTTA LOVE THAT SURE GRIP", lol its so much easier takin on and off, and it works great

 

how are the K&N ones, they are like 11 bucks or something. better than OEM?

 

my last change i used a genuine honda OEM and mobile 1 clean 5000. 10-w30

does anyone know the advantages of 10w30 versus 5w30?

 

castrol syntec blend 5w30, and FRAM for me =p

little bit better at protecting in very hot climates. Honda recommends 5w30 for gas mileage, and proper lubrication, though. So 5dubyah is what i use in my GSR.

I use regular *** oil. It's just my daily driver. I mean it may see some spirited driving...but whatever. I use the OEM honda filter because my friends work at a dealer and i get them for free.

I use synthetic in my S2000 since it sees a lot of track time....and cuz it's my "fun car" lol.

Iduno...synthetic if you're going to drive the car hard, i guess. It's NA so you'd have to drive it pretty fu#$ing hard for it to make a difference.

None, Honda recommends 5w30,

 

i like the mobile 1 with a ph3593a fram oil filter

 

I use havoline, it's actually a really good conventional oil. I also use a oem honda filter.

Ill probably use synthetic once I get my engine built. synthetic gets lost too quickly with my engine ive got now.

 

i use mobile 1 5w30 and switching to k&n next change to see what it does

lol how are you going to see what it does? Unless you're putting on a lab coat and taking it to the lab, all you're going to be able to write down in your oil change journal is "it came out black and slippery". You can then insert that line into a porno that you will make later on in life.

 

mobil1 5w30 synthetic and purolator filter.

True story...

A different oil filter really isnt going to help unless the ones you had weer shitty and fell apart or something.

 

exactly, every oil filter is just a metal core with a paper inside. Thats why i usually buy the cheapest. And once my oil gets dirty i just get a new filter fill it up with oil (so you dont dry start your engine) and the oil becomes clean again! I use Mobil oil becuase mobil's oil has one of the least levels of varnish in it.

 

i use mobil 1 5w30 15,000 mile synthetic and with a mix of the lucas synthetic oil stabilizer...as far as filter i go for the fram tough guard...works great for my 115k mileage gsr..

 

You can change to synthetic.

I use Royal Purpleeeeeeeee! With OEM Honda filter, cuz that's all you need.

 

valvoline full synthetic and mobil 1 high capacity/efficiency filter

 

lol, after reading all the post I failed to realize that no one told him about the uber search funtion. lol, j/k disregard my comment. On topic I just use Castrol HM and FRAM. My friends say I -5HP cause I use that and they are getting +10HP from using RP or RL. -joke-

I belive its the thickness/grade of the oil as in you would want higer Ws for hot clamatic areas vs lower Ws for colder regions.

 

stp oil filter ( have used for 7+ years with no problems)
i use the mobil 1 5000 mile blend. On the daily i change every 5k, the fun cars get changed every 3.5-4k
