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

 

2JZ-GE Engine Oil (NA (Non Turbo) Engine on a MKIV (JDM only))

Stock = 5w30 Semi Synthetic

I recommend Fully Synthetic 5w30-10w40

Dry Capacity 6.2L's

5w30 - Motul 300V

5w40 - Motul 300V, Silkolene Pro S

Change capacity 4.8-5.8L's

I'd recommened Silkolene Pro S 5w40.

Being less stressed that the GTE version any Fully Synthetic oil between a 5w30 and 10w40 should suffice.

Interval = 9-12,000miles depending on use

I would not buy any oil from Halfords - it is for your VVti TT yes?

 

If BPU 5w40 Silkolene ProS

 

If BPU+ 10w50 Silkolene ProS

 

Dont waste your money in Halfords - Try Opie Oils on here

 

0w will be too thin as per the guide on here :)

 

Hi yeah vvti TT 1998. Dident really want to but they had 20% off all oil.

 

Have a look at the bottom of the main forum page at Opie Oils' section as they have loads of deals in there. Free delivery is shown quite a lot of the time or even a free 1L bottle of oil thrown in.

 

Edit: Looks to be free shipping if ordering stuff worth over £25 before midnight on Monday.
