The MOST useful engine oil for EVO

[ahlim13]

well..no doubt that tomorrow I'm going to change it from lucas 20-50 to motul 300v 15-50...owh wait...should i take 15-50 or 10-40?

that time i ask my mech with same question..

his evo8 prefer use 10-40... suggest i dont need 15-50.. it's benefit for track or endurance race.. tahan high temp..but feel heavy bit and little less fuel mileage compare to 10-40..

and he just got 2x 2litre pack ready stock and add his previous left over..
ngam ngam enough :)

i heard now shd have selling 5 liter pack

^^ Your mechanic is somewhat right. 10W40 will do.
Basically thicker oils are for handling higher temperatures.

own and what about 15-50?..i just bought it 4L for rm320..

Torco SR1 10w40 ....
Better than Motul v300 ...

Using Torco SR-1 20/50
About RM67 / litre, we use around 4.5litres (5bottles @ RM335)
Oil filter RM35 (Mitsubishi)

That the basic oil change maintenance every 5,000km - 7,000km.

Most branded fluids are good for the ride.
If talk about Motul itself, is very competitive product in the market.
Due to several viscosity & other type of fluids could reach.

Viscosity depends on the engine spec & driving.
Myself using 5W-40 if the ride drive by family member in town ride.
Or 10W-40 for long distance ride....
If Spirited ride for the whole day I will use 15W-50...
Most of the time I stay on 10W-40 due to use only long distance & smooth journey.

For those are modded especially internal part...
Normally they will use 15W-50 or higher.
While on thicker viscosity it need longer time to warm up the engine.

Check your Engine Oil Temp from time to time if the fluids suitable for your driving or not.

I use MOTUL for almost everything except AYC fluids stick on Diaqueen...

What do u all think about this lubrication oil brand jtx1000,i saw it on this link:
Ujian Keberkesanan Minyak Enjin JTX1000 - YouTube
It is SAE 15-50w,my friend of mine already used inside his 350whp evo7

im using motul 6100 10w40 for normal daily use, or change to 300V for track days.

so far, those two are the best oil so far for my car..tried Sumo R1, Q8 before..temperature wise better with Motul for my car.

how about Eneos 10w-40? i dare not to pour thicker oil as the manual stated 4g63 runs fine with 5w30 or 10w40.

5W 40 i m using
10W 40 is ok. Not too thick for daily driving. Do used the search function as we already discuss this few times in this forum
