Now down to driving it every month or so in the same manner as always while watching it slowly rust. 257,000 miles or thereabouts, engine never opened, never needed to except for valve cover gaskets. One chain tensioner in the second year and regular religious maintenance. 5,000 OCI with Redline, Nissan filters until corrupted by BITOG to using Fram Ultra, almost always with 0-40 weight, otherwise 5-40. If you've got better data I want to hear it.
Apologies. I got my 0's and 5's mixed up earlier. I used 5-40 primarily and, in later years, switched to 0-40. My records also show two fills with Mobil1 10-40 way back when and one or two fills of Motul 300V 10-40 (note in the margin on that says Smoooth!)
