Subscribed for more input.

I find it interesting that in accordance to that document Nissan does not require Ester oil. Would any of you actually go back?

WHY would you use conventional oil for the Z? That's just....no.

So...ester oil not needed for the 2011? Mobil 1 should be good to go?

Search this forum and other forums that talk 370Z. Many 370Z owner's whether 2010 or 2011 do not use ester oil. They use Amzoil, Mobil 1,
Red Line and other decent brands. 2010 or 2011 it is not a must to use ester oil. Research, research and you will see those that say you HAVE TO USE esther oil are absolutely wrong.

Here are some oil filters you can use with that Mobil 1:

WIX 51358

Napa Gold 1358

K&N HP 1008

Mobil 1 M1-108
