Another question....5W30 is the specified oil for the Z, but I keep reading about the advantages of other viscositys (sp?) such as Mobil 1's 0W40.....what do you guys think about this?
You need to figure out what you are going to be doing with your car and then pick the "correct" oil for that application, ie. track whore only car, dd, semi dd and part time HPDE etc.

When in doubt, just run the manufacturer's suggested viscosity, ie. 5w30.

FYI, I run mobil 1 0w40.
