I am getting ready to do an oil change and I am not sure of what brand to use. I searched the FAQ and archives but there is not anything on user preference. So I was curious what are you guys useing for filters and oil? I plan to add this to the FAQ in the oil section.

 

honda filter and syntec 5-40....i also burn alot of oil

 

napa gold filter and castrol syntec 0-30 euro formula

 

I use Hamp oil filter with Enos oil syntec!

 

I've been using royal purple for street use. I also use K&N filters. When i go to the track i put in Amsoil 10w-40 though.

 

I use 5W30 Mobil 1 Syntetic oil with OEM Honda S2000 oil filter.

 

OEM Honda filter, OEM Acura RDX Synthetic Oil (5w30)

 

That's what I use as well.

 

amsoil 5w 30

 

castrol syntec full synthetic 5w-30 with OEM honda oil filter.

 

where do you get the euro formula? i've been looking around for it but havent come across it.

 

Mobil1 Oil filter with Mobil1 full synthetic 5w-30

 

HAMP filter and 5w30 synthetic blend. Not brand religious.

 

HAMP or OEM S2K filter (other Honda filters are Honeywell/Fram ****), Shell Rotella T Synthetic 5w40 + STP or other Zinc additive (wasn't necessary before Shell removed most of the Zinc from even their best Diesel oil). With a good air filter this combo works well for longer oil change intervals for me, including track usage.

 

you can typically find it at autozone, it will say on the back that it was made in europe or whatever

 

yah i've had good luck at autozone "made in germany"

 

yup, autozone... and they usually have specials on castrol too so it works out nice.

 

Well I think that I am going to go with 5w 30 royal purple, and an oem s2k filter.

 

Motul HTech 100

 

I thought RP and Amsoil are both great high performance oil ( that cost more than $6 a quart retail ) .. any reason you use Amsoil instead of RP when you track it and use RP for street ?

 

7'11 special oil & same filter ftw jk

 

fell out of vtec at about 6500 rpms using royal purple at buttonwillow. The oil got too hot/thin and the engine just couldnt take it. Figured if im gonna use some thick oil, use oil that is clearly thicker and a bit better performance, and go with amsoil. Its more expensive than the RP so i use that for normal street use, since i think its fine. I met one of the top dogs for RP one time and after my discussion with him, i figured i liked the product, just not on the track.
