im seeing more stuff on forum about synthetic vs semi synthetic vs mineral.

 

whats the go boys?
 

fully synthetic handles high temperatures better. but people talk about wear on their cams and what not?

 

either way is 5000k oil changes.

Syn all day everyday 

 

I've never heard of that though tochi

 

I just ran it once to clean it out, I thought zinc and moly was supposed to coat these surfaces and reduce friction

In older cars Matty. Not newer ones. 

 

John full syn. Cam wear is from sh*t production process. 

 

I go 5000 km tops as well.

I've been using gulf western semi syn 15-40. It's ridiculously cheap when its on sale at supercheap, picked up 2 5L bottles for $26.

I'd have to agree. I had one but it ran straight gas and was fairly gutless. It's the torque they make plus 14 inch tyres. 

I love how we can derail threads so easy.
