I'll be going to a 10w40 at some stage I'm sure. Right now, 5w30 seems to still work (112,500km). When the engine is looked at as part of the 125,000km service, I'll see how things look...

Penrite Racing 10 (10W/40). Car's done over 200,000km so don't want to use 5W any more :P.

Filter is Ryco.

Was on Penrite Syn5 but just picked up 6l of hpr10 for my next oil change.
Reason, both work fine but Syn5 is more expensive and my car uses oil :)
