5.5L per svc... urs must be a BIG cc car!

my Legacy GT with oil cooler only need ~

if buy Motul from them $160, no labour charges.

 

no big cc la...only 2L sti. Addition of oil cooler usually adds close to 1L thereabt from stock capacity (abt 4-4.5L). Using a twin scroll oil pan (slightly smaller than 2.5L version due to EL header design), this time should be 5L

 

but i only clocked abt 10-12k/yr (mainly used for track then driving on street as it is not so legal and very uncomfortable due to fast dampening rate and stiff spring as well as stiffened chassis + it will scrap the front lip at almost all MSCP) so change EO abt twice a yr.

imho, any fully synthetic oil is good, just change it according to manufacturer's recommendation or 6 monthly whichever comes first.

Bro, not all EO the same. i have tried afew like Esso, Mobil1, Helix, Carlube, OWS, Motul, Elf, SPC & some others. imho they r different & really not just my butt feels the different especially the cheaper 1 like carlube even my ears, my defi meters tell the different & when it was change out in barely 800km, the EO was so thin it was like water o_O

Hi Bro,

 

May I introduce MSP Metal Treatment Concentrate(Engine Oil Enhancer) to you. Your preferred engine oil works best with MSP Metal Treatment Concentrate which protects your engine and reduce wear by up to 95%.

THE CUTTING EDGE OF METAL TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY

 

MSP is state of the art line of metal treatments that has been used for several years now in many industrial, racing and military applications.

 

Why are MSP products superior?

Conventional lubricants are based upon maintaining high strength and thickness of oil film, or on introducing an EP (Extreme Pressure) protective deposit between moving mating surfaces to resist failure resulting in scoring, seizure or accelerated wear.

 

When observing mating friction surfaces under high magnification one can see that they are actually full of "mountains" and "valleys". These "mountains" penetrate the oil-film that separates the mating friction surfaces, and collide with each other. These collisions in the micro level translate into "friction" between the mating friction surfaces in the macro-level. Some of these collisions result in metal particles breaking away from the colliding "mountains". The breaking away metal particles in the micro-level translate into "wear" process in the macro-level.

 

When MSP is applied, under heat and pressure, some elements of MSP impregnate metallurgically the crystal structure of the metal itself at its mating friction surface. As a result of the metallurgical process, a very thin layer of original metal is transformed into a new type of metal that is much harder and has at least 100 times longer wear-life. This newly formed layer of metal protects the original "softer" metal beneath it from any wear.

 

Since the protective layer is very thin, it is very flexible (like a very thin sheet metal). Although during collisions the protective layer does not allow metal particles to break away, being flexible it allows the metal underneath to be pushed horizontally by the horizontal force generated by collisions. Thus the metal on the "mountains" is "pushed" into the "valleys" flattening out the friction surface resulting in smooth polished-like surface that has much lower friction coefficient. This advanced technology that allows formation of hard, smooth polished-like surfaces from the original friction surfaces, is one of the main features that makes MSP so different from other lubricants on the market today.

recently only did my minor servicing.

 

Change Esso oil, 0w/40 and oil filter, the rest all okay no need to change so far.

 

EO + filter $126, + $28 for 4 spark plugs

 

So far engine even quieter, but perhaps cause its new.

 

Total $ spent was; 154 at SPC Aljunied road.

I had been using this combination for the past year...

 

Elf --> daily use

Motul 300v --> track use (Sepang or Pasir Gudang)

 

Used to be using KIC and very comfortable with it for daily use. However, my workshop is not taking in KIC anymore as it seems that the local agent is no longer dealing with KIC... Frankly, had tried KIC on the tracks and it is good...
