im thinking of using this in our Greddy kit. Its a 5w-40 Full Synthetic.

 

I used it. It works REALLY well and is cheap! Just like some of the more expensive oils (Amsoil, ect.) it has high levels of Zinc and Phosphorus! You can send it in to Blackstone Labs to have them analyze it. There are plenty of turbo guys (not too many other S2000 guys) that use it. But it's worked great in my case. I use the 10w-40 synthetic since I live in California.

 

Been using Rotella T synthetic 5w40 for about a year and a half now. Great stuff!

 

I've always used that stuff in my diesel trucks.

 

It's used by the suby community

 

I use it! its awesome!

 

Why experiment?
Stay to the one that proven to works. After all, your gambling.

 

Really? I could understand with some off the wall brand, but Rotella-T is used by so many different groups from diesels to cars and to motorcycles, I think it's a little silly to call it gambling and 'not proven'.

To the OP- I don't use it (yet) in my S2000, but I used to use it in my bikes with great results. Smoother shifting, smoother engine, and the stuff lasted forever (important for bikes because they beat the hell out of oil). There were several writeups that I read a while back when I was looking into switching to Rotella-T where guys actually took apart their engines after 50k-100k mi, and they looked absolutely mint. No noticeable wear or anything.

I say run it on your next oil change and see how you like it and go from there. I'll be doing it my next oil change as well

So, your suggesting to experiment.
Honda did a billion miles oil test for S2000, what did you accomplish using unknown oil outside their requirements?
Waste of money & u r looking for trouble.

 

Did you read anything aside from the part you quoted? This isn't an unknown oil, isn't an unknown brand, and I'm 99% sure it meets Honda's requirements for oil.

Also, how is it a waste of money? Last I checked it was quite a bit cheaper than most of the other oils out there.
