Re-visiting Oils

[MR2]

well, since I'm going through another breakin on the car oil wise I figure I'd look at what's around and what's available at a REASONABLE price...

so I've settled on some fairly widely available oils..

For the Gearbox/TC: Castrol VMX-M...$42 (4L)

For the Engine: HPR5 $44 (5L)

For Kaaz Rear Diff: Penrite Limslip 85w-140 (2.5L) $25

will let you guys know how it all goes.

Stuff I'm also testing is:

EBC Yellowstuff pads (the level above Redstuff, which have been excellent)
RBF600 Brake Fluid (very good without the $10 premium per bottle the RBF660 carries)
For an Oil Flush I use the Penrite Everyday 5w-40
For Filters I just use Ryco's
