Nissan's branded Ester oil because it keeps my oil temps down more than any other synthetic oil I have used and it has more Molybdenum than any other oil (Mo is a VERY good metal to metal lubricant)

That's pretty much my standard oil based answer really.
I may when I see a new oil thread, but I usually answer with that or close to it.

And being a scienceologist, I like my theory about the Mo, they make specific Mo additives, most sciencey BS oils (I forgot the really "good" one out of Japan that doesn't say the ingredients but says 'NASA used metal lubricant for the space station and it gives 10+whp'...) It's just taking a quart of 5W-30 out, putting 0W-20 instead [which is obviously less resistant to the crankshaft spinning, thus making more power (which is also why Hondas use 0W-20 only now)] and a shitload of Mo... Which was the lubricant NASA used in space...

Now for the regular rant. I think there should be a thread with a poll for which oil you use, and I think EVERY new member should be forced to look at the poll.
Obviously if someone used a certain oil and had a problem with it in THIS car, they would change, and their comments and such of "I used RP and the dealer said not to, so now I use Castrol whatever the fúck because Paul Walker liked it" becomes null and void. Just fúcking vote Castrol.

Nice seeing everyone and meeting a few new guys!
Oh, and winnre, the guy you let sit in your car is the "meet mascot" while you may not be 100% mentally there... I don't think he's more than... 2% there

By the way. I kid, I kid, it was good meeting you, I didn't think you'd want to make the trek from BFE, lol
(And if you ever need any gun parts machined, tell me. We have a machine shop at work, and PM me pics of your Desert Eagle)
