Samsar Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I was just offered 2x5 litres of Comma Motorsport 5w50 oil for £48... I'm just wondering if it was a good buy or not and will it be ok for a '94 NA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nasoup Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I wouldn't use it in my N/A judging by this info 2JZ-GE Engine Oil (NA (Non Turbo) Engine on a MKIV (JDM only)) Stock = 5w30 Semi Synthetic I recommend Fully Synthetic 5w30-10w40 Dry Capacity 6.2L's 5w30 - Motul 300V 5w40 - Motul 300V, Silkolene Pro S Change capacity 4.8-5.8L's I'd recommened Silkolene Pro S 5w40. Being less stressed that the GTE version any Fully Synthetic oil between a 5w30 and 10w40 should suffice. Interval = 9-12,000miles depending on use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samsar Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 What's the worst that can happen if I put it in ? I've already bought it as he was selling at cost. I'd just delivered 25 pallets to the place I got it from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy442 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Fully synth is overkill on an n/a, Toyota specc'd a semi synth back in 94 or whenever, and oils have advanced alot since then. Isnt Castrol cheaper? My brother got 5 litres of Castrol semi synth for 22 quid last week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w41k3r Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 at asda near me they have castrol gtx or which evers in the white bottle 10-40w for £3 for 1l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 10W50 is a Little on the heavy side, 10W40 would be better, unless of course you engine has done mega mileage and the oil pressure is a bit low, nothing at all wrong with semi synth however, i used it in my single turbo Supra, and i still use it.

Chris Wilson Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 It'll be fine, but may knock MPG down about 0.002% I have run out of Neo gear oil that I put in some Hewland transaxles, and my Tractive box in the Skyline, I am dreading how much 4 litres of this is going to be..... £102 for 3.785 litres, Jeez, that's gone up again. No wonder the Volvo has to make do with chip oil https://shop.fluidsinmotorsport.co.uk/department/neo_synthetic_oils/?gclid=CIzUo5qz06cCFQoY4QodTRvv-Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samsar Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 I'll give it a go and if it goes bang on me I'll let you all say ' We told you not to ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
