Normal operating temp is OK.
PRO S is very temperature stable and can be used for prolonged periods up to 130 degC!

Do you know the temp that it starts lubricating 'properly' though?
Hi there,
do you have any transmission oils suitable for use in clutch type LSD's? the manufacturer sells their own 80W-140 API GL-5 oil, but thats in japan, and I'm not have you got anything with that or similar spec?
We have the Fuchs Titan Gear hyp 85w-140 which meets the GL5 spec. E-mail me for prices.Originally Posted by Matt_T

Would that be the justification behind Amsoils claimed 25k intervals, or is that just a case of "American optomism"?Originally Posted by oilman

It is not impossible for an oil to run for 25000 miles but would you do it?
You see it's probably ok in a stock car with no extreme use but in a car used for drifting, track days and spirited driving, I wouldn't recommend it.
Nissan Micra maybe but 200sx, I think not.

I need to be getting some oil in the group buy. I need 5 litres-ish for my mildly tuned S14 (will be running aroung 270bhp) which is mainly driven VERY hard and another 5 litres-ish for my completely standard S12 (1.8 8valve turbo 140bhp) which is my runabout and is used for short journeys etc. It still gets a bit of stick though. Can you give me any idea which of your oils would be the best. Don't ask me what I use now as I can't remember whats in there at the moment as I keep changing on peoples advice. If you could get me a price (maybe via PM) too that would be good. I am going to be the Kent/Surrey dude for the group buy so delivery will be to me. Many thanks.

Hi Oilman
Oil turned up next day as promised for which I thank you very much indeedy
One point though, I had to collect it from Amtrak as I wasnt in when they delivered. When they asked me what I was expecting and I said "Oil" they freaked out and said they weren't supposed to carry that
EVen though it was labelled from "opie oils"

Engine oil has a flash point in excess of 200C so is not classed as hazardous unless its being transported by air
I've been running the Silkolein Pro S for a week now and wow! No more VVT rattle
Hello oilman ive got a s14a 1998 and do standard day to day driving i have an induction kit and will have a performance zorst. Please can email me some prices for oil engine and transmission

We have had this trouble as well, we find if you describe the oil as lubricant they dont tend to question it.Originally Posted by Nismo Mark

Hello mate, what sort of oil would you reccommend for my mildly tuned (250hp) R32 skyline??
its used every couple of days or so, and every 2 weeks or so gets a bit of a beating at drift days...
also how frequenty would you change the oil??
Many thanks
Jason
Jason,Originally Posted by Jason
For you skyline, go for the Silkolene Pro S 10w-50 ester based full sytnetic. Esters assist the additive pack in a motor oil formulation because they are surface-active (electrostatically attracted to metal surfaces), so they help to reduce wear and friction.
They are fluid at very low temperatures and at high temperatures they are very chemically stable and have low volatility (don’t evaporate away).
They also help to prevent hardening and cracking of oil seals at high temperatures making them ideal for tuned engines used in anger on those drift days.
E-mail me for prices.
Cheers
Guy.

Hi,
What would you recommend for me? Running about 270bhp (or will be shortly), currently on Castrol RS 10w60 but I think it's a little too thick? Only ever gets down to about 2bar when it's hot. Not used on track at the moment.
Ta
I agree the RS 10w-60 is a bit too thick, also it is just a hydrocracked mineral oil and not a synethetic in the true sense of the word. I would suggest the Silkolene Pro S 10w-50. This oil is being used by quite a few 200SX's now. Another option would be Mobil 1 15w-50 as this is a top PAO synethic.Originally Posted by voodoo_melon
