Thanks she's getting there. Got any pics of your Integra floating around?

Like I said - I wouldn't even consider it for my car, it was just something I thought of earlier today and had a little curiosity about.

Probably should make a new thread for this, but hey, I don't think anyone will hate me for derailing my own thread and not cluttering the board up with a new one Keep in mind I have no intention of trying this with my own vehicle - it's just something I've heard mentioned and am curious about...

If the oil starts coming out clean I'll extend the OCI - if not, I'm thinking I'll probably run cheaper oil until I get enough money saved to have it overhauled. Starting the whole process this week though...whenever the ARX gets here. Thanks again for all the input

The ARX website recommends 3000 - I figured I'd go that far and keep it under 5k RPM until changing it again

That's the plan - I'm going to run the Pennzoil YB on the first cycle, then Pennzoil Platinum for the rinse, like ryland recommended. After the rinse I'm going to start it on AMSOIL, with (as far as current data points) M1 filter.

Wow - that's very interesting. I'm going to run the ARX cycles through it and then see if there's any new data by the end of those, should probably be several months before I put another 5k miles on the car. As of right now though I'm definitely leaning more toward the M1 filter, after looking...

Originally Posted By: ryland it is a great filter but maybe if your worried about the rings you should use a napa gold and pennz yb and ARX. Then a change of pennz platnium on a napa gold then finaly use the SSO with a Ea filter and your motor would be prestine! This is what I'll go ahead and...

I'm just trying to get that blowby taken care of without having the motor rebuilt and rings replaced. Because I have a specific goal in mind with the additive, I was planning on doing a short change interval for the first couple changes to offset the dilution it causes - I know that it will...

Yeah, fluids are being changed one by one - the brake/clutch fluid are completely filthy. And a valve adjustment is on the list too And yeah, I have every intention of treating this car like it's made of gold especially with 43 months left on the loan. Since that looks to be the general...

Hello forum, Long-time reader, first-time poster. I drive an '02 Acura RSX Type-S, and I'm trying to squeeze every bit of engine life, power, and fuel economy out of it that I can. First car I've ever bought with a loan and I want it to be worth the money Anyway, I'm not going to ask for...
