Hi mate. Got this from the experts at Opie Oils.

 

2JZ-GTE Engine Oil (TT Engine on a MKIV (UK or JDM))

Stock = 10w30 Semi Synthetic

I recommend Fully Synthetic 10w40/50

Dry Capacity 6.5L's

Change capacity 5-6L's (Have 6L's ready)

Regular Driving - BPU or Less

5w40 - Silkolene Pro S, Castrol RS, Motul 300V Power

5w50 - Valvoline VR1 SynPower, AGIP PC5w-50

Regular Driving - BPU to Big Power

10w40 - Motul 300V Chrono, Royal Purple Racing 41

10w50 - Silkolene Pro S

10w60 - Castrol RS (NB Untested)

Track Oil

15w50 - Silkolene Pro R, Motul 300V

 

I'd recommend the 10w50 Silkolene as it's Ester based unless I was using the car only for short journey's then i'd use the Valvoline.

NB: Mobil1 0wxx has been known to get passed the piston rings and cause excessive oil consumption. I would recommened ALL 0wXX oils are avoided. 5W is the lowest I would use.

See here for details on how to change your oil.

Interval = 3-9,000miles depending on use/power levels

 

Have fun. :)

what about the gearbox oil.

quantity and which oil please

 

Manual 6-speed V160/161 Gearbox

Stock = Toyota V160 oil (PART No. 08885-01306)

Capacity 1.8l's when dry

Toyota V160 Oil (comes in 1L cans - require 2 cans)

Esso Dextron D21065

I recommened you stick with stock

Interval = 2 Years / 30,000miles depending on use/power levels

 

Automatic 4-speed A340E

Capacity = 8.2L's (But you can only really change what's in the sump of it and that is ~2L's)

Stock = Toyota Type-IV - 2L's for a quick change. Have 10L's ready for a full flush.
