Sh0velMan's Track Car Build

Sh0velMan

Changed the oil. Had Red Line 5w30 in it, seemed to be a good oil, only got to put ~500 miles on it though. It'd been in the crankcase for a year, had to go.

Giving Mobil 1 0w40 a shot. It's the "European" formula that's actually made in Germany I believe. I know on the oil forums, it had some of the highest numbers for ZDDP and Molybendum, which are high in the Nissan Ester Oil. Difference this stuff is $22 for a 5 qt jug... Yes please.

And I never thought I'd say this, but damn is that Pure One oil filter nice. It's just a damned oil filter but geez, it's so nice I almost hated to hide it under the car... ha. It was $6 on Amazon Prime, can't complain. The stupid canister refill filter on my Mazda cost $12 at WalMart, highway robbery. Did the oil on that beast too, it had about 9K miles on it so I figured what the hell. Interestingly my "finger test" tells me that the oil was still perfectly usable, would take a EOA to tell me for sure how worn it was, but meh.
