**Best viscosity for frs and brz**
 

Just post your opinion and reasoning

I run torco 100 synthetic sr1 10w 30 in summer due to the fact i run it hard.

Allow me to direct you to the correct subforum, with particular attention to this thread, where all that information has been discussed in depth.

0W-20. It's what the manufacturer recommends. I don't think we would know better than the people who built the engine.

That smiley doe. Ahaha.

There needs to be an RTFM smiley where he's slapping someone with the manual.

thx u

You know what?

I run 0W-20 for my track events with a Cusco oil cooler, and I have zero issues.

[quote=21_nola_05;1761652]The manufacturer engineered the engine to run on 0W-20. When they performed tests on the engine -- they included people running the car hard. If they weren't sure that the car could handle a 7.5k Redline, they wouldn't had put that there.

If they believed the car needed a higher viscosity oil, they would had put in something else.

Fact is: They engineered the engine, they know what the engine needs, they know what's best. 0W-20.

/endthread.

My manual suggests a higher viscosity oil for high temperature or hard driving conditions.

Otherwise I agree with you completely, this is a discussion for either the track sub-forum or the maintenance sub-forum for when you decide to deviate outside average driving conditions.

I guess ill go back to 0W-20 then ASAP . thx

^This. Stop worrying and drive your car and put in 0w-20. Even autocross is less than 1-2 minutes long your oil isn't going to get hot enough before you wait again to matter.

Now long sessions on a road course are a different story...
