i didnt have bearing problems because my oil was too thin, i had bearing problems because there wasnt ANY oil in the engine, period.

ive heard good things about eneos 0w50, and i already have 5 quarts of it. i'm just going to try it out at first. i'll probably end up just using it for track days and using something else like mobil 1 for street duty.

Welcome to the club! Was it you that bored a cadet to 1.9? I'm curious how you liked it and how it performed. From my understanding it should make for an almost perfectly square motor.

i was always under the impression that it was really good shit. but according to big jon and the guy who did the machine work, royal purple caused the problem. they told me why but i dont remember the whole explanation. something about RP relying on detergents to clean out deposits and shit, but it doesnt actually protect the bearings at all.

ryan clemens also had troubles when he put RP in his motor, luckily he noticed it right away and changed it out.

I've got some eneos 0w50 i want to try out when i get the new potato rolling, but i'm not sure if i'm going to use it full time.

I guess RP uses metal particles as an additive for there friction modifier to have less friction between moving parts. I don't know bout anyone else that doesn't seem to good to be floating around in my engine. AMS oil +1. If you need ams I can get you some my teacher is a AMS dealer/rep person(something like that) or Redline is pretty good its AMS's top competitor. Sry to hear bout the SR thats shitty and really odd expecially after you just had it built, first I ever heard of that stuff happening. You got any plans for the new one?

the new one has an S14 T28, greddy RAS, stance water pump pulley, stance oil block delete, custom earls oil cooler w/ remote filter, new exedy stage 2 clutch, greddy catch can, and i'm most likely picking up a V mount setup this weekend for it.
