Yet another place where it's useful to inject this http://www.bobistheoilguy.com
There is SO much useful information on there.

10w50 is too thick, the engine was only designed to pump and flow a 30 or 40. 30 for a "virgin engine" ( healthy grocery getter ), or 40 for spirited use...

If we are talking about GT-R’s RB26DETT here, this is false. Of course it’s not “too thick”! Nismo (even Mines) recommends 15W50 for their GT-Rs 32 - 34. Then 10W60 for their not too modified street GT-Rs. It’s in Nismo’s catalog, you can even look it up.


Sorry had to reply to this old post, especially since some will probably use this as reference.

We are talking about an unmodified rb25 neo with an auto trans, to be a daily driver. The nissan service recommendation was 5w30.

For modded engines, could be anything depending on the setup or environment.. seen guys swear by 20w50 royal purple.. and even 15w40 non synthetic rotella
