If the RAV engine is not showing any signs of "distress" I suggest staying away from any additives. I strongly suggest no additives for the Z (unless you are racing).

it's a little sluggish, it's a 15 year old car that's taken a lot of abuse. if you hit the gas it doesn't necessarily pick up right on it.

as far the z, it's brand new so it doesnt even cross my mind lol and i dont plan on keeping it longer then 4-5 years

I'd look at things like spark plugs, MAF, injectors, &c before dumping additives into my oil.

spark plugs changed a couple months back. don't think we ever changed the injectors but can't remember. i know the throttle body was cleaned about 5 months back i think. for 15 years the car has been good, never any problems. But i'll leave it as a last resort for the MMO
