castrol oil RS0w/40
 
Does anybody recommend using castrol RS 0w/40 on a MY96 sti type ra, as I'm doing a oil change myself.

What would you recommend.

No. That oil is thinner than ideal.

Try Mobil 1 Motorsport 15w/50, Motul 300V 15w/50 or Castrol RS 10w/60 instead.

Don't forget to have a read of this if you haven't already. ;)

In that case then anybody want to buy 3L of Castrol RS 0w/40 £20.


Cheers for that Greasemonkey, you just saved me alot of time and money.

Wasn't you going to change all the oil then? :)

The shop only had 3L left, so I decided to buy all those and come home and just send somebody else out to halfords and get me another 2L.

But I'll have to cancel that order and get some Mobil 1 instead.

I got some Motul 300v 10w50 from Alyn at ASPerformance a while back for around £50, you can reach him at info@asperformance.com
