Fantastic color, and I find your project name to be extremely clever :|

Yeah I really had to dig deep to pull that one out. ;)

Ooo...great deal on oil, need to change the 350 oil & that is what I use.
Any coupons required or straight discount?

It's just the normal price for any 5 qt bottle of Mobil 1, so it could just be a regular thing now. They just never had the 0w40 in 5 qt bottles before, just individual 1 qt bottles.

Well that's awesome then if it's their regular price going forward. Hard to beat a top quality oil (the 0w40, not the rest of the Mobil) for $5/qt.

Walmart has a sale on Mobil 1 0w40... 5quart jugs for $24.97. That's $4.99/qt. Notbad.jpg. I picked up all the jugs they had (3) and the last remaining solo quart. We still have some leftovers from Dana's old CLK, so I should have the next few changes covered. :tup:

I've always picked up my Mobil 1 at Walmart. The 5W-30 has been $25 for 5 qts for several years now, and I just noticed the 5qt 0W-40 last time I was there. Great price!

Looking good, Steve! :tup: That is one sharp color!

WTF, since this is an oil thread now. Why the 0w40 weight and not 5w30?

The German stuff (0w40) gets delicious UOAs in the VQs. Figured I'd give it a shot. German Castrol also does really well.

Crap, I just changed my oil (M1 5w30) last Friday.

For Mobil 1, the 0w40 is the only one that is fully synthetic.

I've sworn off Mobil 1 since my Subaru started acting funny with it in the system. :facepalm:

BTW Steve now that you have Deja Blue back, do you want the butt plug start button back, or did you pull the trigger on a new one? I mean, this one is slightly used but I'm sure I could pull it out and send it back to you...:yum:

(yes i know you already ordered one but i had to get in on this deliciousness)

I already pulled the trigger on a new one. That would have been cute, though. :icon17:

Ultimately I ended up with the 370 again. As you guys know I'm a big fan, and even with my 5.0 I was still president of our local 370Z owners club. Much like hanging out with your ex after a breakup, I couldn't help but feel like there was unfinished business with me and the Z.

The Z won't leave you for someone else... just saying. ;) Welcome back, Steve! Can't wait to see you build it up and maybe join the turbo club.
