Would like to hear you comments regarding both Redline and Nissan Oil and why you choose one over the other.

Also, what type of filter do you use?

My friend swears by Amsoil Oil and says it is the best of all of them. He says it is so good, you can actually list it as a Mod.........JK, lol.

I used Nissan ester for first 4 changes and redline for last year. Nissan ester is group IV and redline is groupV so it's technically a better oil . I have noticed cooler temps when pushing the car.(5-10 degrees cooler with redline) also from many reviews on this forum redline lasts longer.

So I highly recommend it. Amsoil is probably comparable but I haven't really heard much or read reviews on here.

I use puralator filters but one size bigger than recommend .
