What type of Motor Oil do you use for your Supra Turbo?

[CJP28]

Hey guys, so I'm gonna do an oil change on my newly aquired 1990 Toyota Supra Turbo with over 150,000 Miles, and for it's first oil change I am gonna use Mobil 1 Full Synthetic High Mileage 10W-30. http://www.mobiloil.com/USA-English/MotorOil/Oils/Mobil_1_High_Mileage_10W-30.aspx

I was curious, what type of oil do ya'll use for your Supras? What type of oil is recommended for this car? Suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

You should use a 5w30 or a 0w30 like German castrol f you can find it.

I used to use Gc 0w30 but switched to redline cause I get a good deal on it.

 

[JDMMA70]

I use Eneos 5w40 or Rotella T6 as its really cheap and easy to find for me in my area.

0w30 German castrol, they changed the label from the last time i bought it

 

[Zumtizzle]

E85, high mile, or Over 400HP Motor

If it leaks oil, and/or has high miles.



If it leaks oil, and has under 150k miles.



If it doesn't leak oil and under 150k miles.

There's a whole subforum dedicated to the topic of oil, etc:

Everything you need to know about oil for your Supra is in that forum.

German Castrol, 0-30, Pure One filters.

10k between oil changes, with oil added as needed to keep it approx one quart above full mark. 5k between filter changes. ~10k on full rebuild, minus piston rings.

Excellent oil actually - use the 0W-30 or 5W-40 synthetic versions though

im using t6 rotella 5w40 synthetic

Penzoil Plantium, and it is a fraction of the cost of Mobil 1.

Both are very true statements

i was running royal purple before but im switching to this 0w40

Stay away from high mileage oils.

I use pennzoil 5w-30 platinum and a napa platinum synthetic filter.
