    Would like opinions on oils for my 515whp Supra

    No for the supra I would go with any oil. I think I confused this thread by mentioning I would possibly use the oil in both cars I said that because I was thinking I might go with a 0w40 which could go in either but I would use any oil in the supra and if it happens to be readily available and...

    Would like opinions on oils for my 515whp Supra

    Bringing thread back from dead since the summer has came and the winter never arrived. I did buy a bunch of M1 15w50 but I still have not committed to using it as I can exchange it for any readily available oil at the local auto shops. I think the thread got to focused on the cold weather use...

    I can not believe you are on #3 I hope they were replaced under warranty. Is this your first turbo car? Have you always warmed up the fluids properly before driving hard or moderately loading (boosting) the motor? I think my break in was below 4 k for 1000miles maybe I remember looking for a...

    I've always heard lots of talk about consumption but my spec b has 107k on it put everyone of those miles on it and it has never had any oil consumption. I assume that is a good thing but with every other suby owner noting consumption it makes me feel something is different with mine. There...

    How much oil for testing?

    Is the preffered sample from oil as it is drained or in the middle of the OCI interval assuming u have a valve vs drain plug? Also should the oil pour for a second and sample come from midstream as to not have any extra collected material that settled around the drain or valve? TIA, Anthony

    M1 0w40 sl formula vs sm

    I just liked what I read about it and was under the impression that since it is 0w40 it would be better on start up than the 10w30 the supra currently sees my tuner also recommended a heavier oil I just recently got it back on the road and need to choose one soon I guess I should send in some...
