these are the best stuff for rotor engine

 

where is a cheap place to get this stuff?

 

http://www.mazdatrix.com this is the site where i got it from

 

For premix, I use Idemitsu.

For Engine oil, I use nothing but *True Group IV or V* Full synthetic oil.

Does that answer your question ?

 

I premix 8oz of Idemitsu @ every fill up.

I also use 5w30 Royal Purple ever 3,000miles with HP-1010 K&N oil filter.

 

wow,

more shameless plug..

odd.

The best oil?
I prefer this:

 

Royal Purple's not bad, but it gets expensive if you use a lot......

Yes, it's the most popular here, but some prefer a full synthetic pre-mix like Amsoil Saber Pro. It's worth noting that neither Idemitsu nor Amsoil recommend their products for our cars--many feel that's just CYA on account of not wanting any liability for catalytic converters. With both products, many recommend also using a cleaner to resist carbon build-up. Some recommend just MMO, while others absolutely detest it. With the most recent reflashes, some say the amount of pre-mix should be cut in half. That's my summary of this 45-page, 1,100 post thread.

 

Just what we needed......another friggin oil thread!


Let the debate continue!

Woof?

 

no way. have you never heard of greek olive oil?

 

I want to change oil in my rx8 but not sure what is the best oil to use. Need a lil help..

 

vegetable oil

 

I just got one a couple of days ago and according to the manual just use 5w-20. I don't know if any special brand is better for the rotary but I've been plodding around, searching if you will, when I get a moment.

I've been too busy driving.

 

Read this thread: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-tech-garage-22/lets-look-expo1s-over-100k-renesis-motor-138402/

Cant remember which page but the final summary of the engine and oil weights is pretty interesting.

 

if vegetable oil is made from vegetables, whats baby oil made from? let me leave you with that and the answer is baby oil for your engine

 

Use what your owner's manual specifies. Since you're in Trinidad, the weight might not be what the US manual says. Make sure it satisfies the API Service and ILSAC specs - most oils sold to regular drivers do. Brand does not really matter, as long as it's one you've heard of.

I use 5w20 Castrol GTX

 

Your user manual will become your best friend if you just read it. I have only had my 8 for a few days and i have refered to it a few times already. Oh and all of the people on here are like the bible's assistants in my opinion so a quick search will answer about any question you can come up with.

 

I use royal purple 5w-30 fully synthetic.. been running on it for almost 30K miles and is running great,,

but my gas mileage cropped by liek almost 2 miles per gallon I was getting around 17 int he city and now im getting 15.9 but thats because i have intake, and the ignition solution and the cobb and they improve gas mileage..

before these i was getting 14 MPG

 

Well you could use what Mazda—the company that actually designed the engine—recommends in the Owner's Manual. Or you could use what the computer programmers, salesmen, IT guys, electrical engineers and students (some who have graduated high school) recommend here.

Tough call.

 

I think the SEARCH button needs to be bigger

 

baby oil is for turbo applications only
