Hi just wondering what type of engine oil is good for fg xr6 turbo it has 10w60 martina racing oil. I having trouble choosing a good one.

@fpv501 - I've moved your post to here - should be some info for you.

I drive sensibly, and have only done around 6,000kms in the last 10-11 months.

 

I was using Penrite HPR5 (or maybe 10 I forget) oil and a Royal Purple filter.

 

Any suggestions on what to buy this time?

this will work, change yearly. If cashed up, castrol edge or mobil 1.

Yeah, the semi-synthetic version of that is a go.

[Rockatansky]

So this is the go?

Yep, that stuff is ace.

[Rockatansky]

So you'd recommend the semi over the full synthetic?
