    In all of my turbo cars (except for the built ones) I used mobile 1. In my built motors (forged rebuilds) I ran Motul oils, which were a tad thicker. In my NA engines I use Magnatec, this is used and recommended by a lot of mechanics.

    not a real fan of magnatec, has a a habit of leaving filings all throughout the motor and never actually draining them properly!

    mobil 1 for me in all our engines, + ROIL metal conditioner

    mr2 engine - penrite hpr15

    drove to winton on june 18th, drifted and then drove back:
    2.5 hours driving up - 1.75 hours of that was at 4000rpm
    2.5 hours driving back - same as above
    i got on the track at 10:30am and off at 4:30pm - 2 short breaks - that was drifting

    and car is in the same condition as it was when i drove it up (for now!)

    Also use penrite for diff .. and that's all going good too
