Which oil do you guys put in your 8? and what would you recommend me to add for my 8. I Live in Texas. And its very hot down here most of the time. Are there any recommendations on what oil I must use overall or which oil I should use depending on the weather. (Hot or cold - summer/winter) Rotary4LiFe!

 

I use conventional 5w20 or 5w30. Personally, if you're going to change oil every 3000 miles (which I think the majority here do) I see no point in synthetic.

Prepare for some flames for asking the #1 most commonly asked and answered unanswerable question. I'll be burnt beside you for angering the synthetic fans.

Oh - look for the thread that has the oil chart from the Australian RX-8 manual. It shows a very sensible range of choices of oil for various temperature ranges.

yea.. it all depends on what you want. i use royal purple 5w20 and i change oil every 3000 mile.

...no seriously dude...look up the old threads and discussions...

 

Not sure you got your point across!

 

i use wolfs head 5w 20 but after reading the discussion on it here im switching to royal purple like i originally wanted to do when i got my car 2 years ago

 

Use 10w40.

**** 5w20

I use 20w50

if u cant, at least use 5w30 or 10w30.

and if u go synthetic, get a REAL synthetic, not some fake **** like Valvoline and Castrol Syntec (except their 0w30)

 

Extra Virgin, First Cold Pressing.

 

peanut oil works best for my car

 

I premix my oil 3:1 with 5w30 and KY Jelly. The extra lubrication from the KY actually allows the rotors to spin at a faster rate. I can do 0-60mph in 9.2 seconds. If no KY availabe(to busy using for personal use) then use snake oil and cool aid. Second best IMO.

 

Used veggie oil

 

10w30 dino juice

 

atilla....BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH~!

SEARCH NOOB!

KY works great too...
