Last weekend in Tesco Setia Alam I saw the Shell 5w40 FS @rm139/4ltr & Mobil 1 0w40 FS @rm159/4tlr but I didn't buy. I instead bought Toyota 5w30 FS oil @rm130/4ltr, supposedly made in Japan.

Probably our currency exchange loss dy, even Tesco sales not like before prices....:bawling:

You can try Shell Formula FS 5w-30 sold in Aeon at RM129 but comes in 4 x 0.946 liter packing

Yeah must be due to forex loss in the past 1-2 years.
Naah, not really interested on that Shell Formula coz the packaging is short by 0.5ltr/btl so the total volume not really matching what I need for both cars. Furthermore that price has always been like that so doesn't feel the urgency to buy coz it's not special promo price anyway.

how bout HKS FS? i've been using em for about 3 times before switching back to SS since i'm not driving hard enough to fully exploit the lube... :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
Never used before coz:
1. Too expensive
2. No idea who actually made these oil.
3. Read some forums overseas (US & Europe) that it doesn't seem that good/not having good reviews especially considering the price.
In short, not really confident enough to try it.

HKS plugs at least we know it's made by NGK so still good. I'm using it btw but bought on promo price so the same or even slightly cheaper price than the Denso Iridium, pretty good actually.

Yeah HKS oil got some odd viscosity ratings.

Anyway last weekend went to Tesco Bukit Tinggi, saw promotion on Total 5W40 FS @rm139/5ltr.

Yeah, that price was like over 2 years ago.
Anyway as long as I can get some FS oil below rm150/4ltr then I'm fine with that.

We were amazed at how close to perfection the Pagani Zonda Cinque was when Autocar drove it last week, but the Cinque pales in comparison to the Zonda R. As promised Autocar has released this new video of the Zonda R review and it is absolutely perfect. The Pagani Zonda R is a must have machine for any track day junkie or motorsports fan with deep pockets. Why? Watch the video and understand.
