I'm due to do an oil change on a 200SX S13 (light engine mods). Nissan say use 10w 40 Mineral Oil, looking on the 200sx board views seem mixed between mineral oil and fully synthetic.

I always assumed it would be fully synthetic and I'm questioning using mineral oil??

Any Nissan owners on here with an advice??

I've got a 200SX but the S14a.

Seems the most recommended oil for the S13 or S14/a is the Silkolene Pro-S 5w40 or 10w50

Thanks, think I'll get some 5w 40 for it

Hey SJ, I haven't been keeping up with current events, when did you get rid of the Supra?

That pic from a coupla years back of the Supra OC at a Shell station still makes me chuckle ....

Hey mate - that is indeed a cracking pic Quite a bits happened since the Supra!

I had a little "incident" in the supra at about 15-20 mph tops - but into solid concrete and it was written off back in March 2004 Then I went out and bought a Skyline GTR, which I had from April 2004 to Sept 2005. I bought the S14a 200SX back in July last year and SORN'd it until the GTR was sold. Reason being I wanted to buy a bike too, so the Skyline went to fund the ZX6R I've now got and the 200SX was the best car for the remaining money in spec, year, miles etc

I am hoping to keep this combo for a fair bit of time now
