Best Oil for our beloved Hondas

[IcemaN]

hi all,
im due for a service and was wondering what oil sould i be using in my b18c7...
its stock at the moment. future mods only include bolt on mods. so no internal work.

what oil sould i be running? price doesnt make a difference.

[hebe]

I use OWS...are you referring to the brand or the vicosity grade?

I think in terms of brand, it pretty much comes down to personal preference and you should be changing your oil at regular intervals anyways so it shouldn't matter

honda feo

[tinkerbell]

mobil 1 15W-50

but that is because i circuit race...

ok now iv got a little more info, i can get more specific.
car will be used mainly street with the occasional track day.
if brand isnt so important. what viscocity rating sould i be running?
is the honda oil good enough for my use or what sould i be using?

All Hondas are pretty much the same.
If you dont track often, any sort of 10w-30 engine oil should be fine provided it aint burning oil already.

I use 10w-40 oil. Motul 4100 (the cheapest Motul 10w-40) is the one I use, costs $36 from Autobarn with Entertainment Book voucher.

Mine is 10w40...I don't track the car but I prefer to use it over 10w30...

My oil is changed every 5000kms

i use honda feo 10w-30. it is fine for daily driving and occasional track days. on BMi, mr. ichishima from spoon suggest to use honda oil for applications ranging up to track days a few times a year.
anything synthetic, 5w to 10w - 30 to 40 would be fine, brand is up to personal preference, though it seems Mobil1, Motul and Castrol seem to be quite popular.
main thing is to change oil regularly, i change mine every 5000kms.

Elf Excellium GP 5W-30 is going in next week

currently using Mobil 1 0W-40

[sangers]

using Castrol Forumla R (Now Edge) 0-40 since this is what my engine has been fed from birth.

[air23box]

I use motul 8100 X-cess 5W-40 for daily drive
If for track I use 300V Chrono 10W-40
If you want something cheap for budget daily use can choose Turbolight 10W-40 too......
