Wonder what the one from Subaru says?
It actually says it's for diesel engines and high-performance petrol engines.
It's fully synthetic, and out of the Toyota range it's only used for the 86.
It also has Rob Green's nod of approval, and he recommends using it post SC conversion.

Correct. Always a good idea to make sure they're using the right stuff, one of the members here was sold single grade 30W top up oil.

That's the one!

I'd just like to know which Toyota specifically the 30W was for. Do they sell lawnmowers as well?

Could you give a break down of spec on bottle please sir!! Toyota makes cars ..... and 4x4's for overweight brandy swirling Sefricans .... rebottling an oil is just money for jam. Cheapest that makes spec sold at highest possible price. Dead give always is that for diesel and high performance petrol engines. BS!! It's a low spec compared to dedicated oils like Redline, Royal Purple to name two and there are many, many more.


If this is such a super oil ..where are the specs ...nobody can match them for sure?


And if such a great oil .... RGM uses Redline

Royal pos and red crap has the worse viscosity ratio at high temp. Even worse than castrol

Nice one Fish_Eagle - somebody had to say it, may as well have been the wisest one here.

It's a small community, being an utter prick in pretty much every single thread is not going to make him any friends. I think we've all been holding back because we're trying to be nice, but we've all been thinking it so screw this...

Were the machines ISO calibrated and can you produce the certificates? You know this guy is going to ask for them.
