Hi Joe-san,

OPAK doesn't get MOTUL from MOTUL USA?

Hiro-san,
From what Mark told me, OPAK imports their Motul oil straight from Japan and it comes in 2 litre cans. For those that don't know a 2 litre can equals 2.1 quarts. As a matter of fact, OPAK Racing has your Motul oil in stock (Motul, 300V Chrono 100% Synsethic their finest top of the line)

I'm going to buy a case which has twelve 2 litre cans or approximately 26 qts... If we get enough S owners buying Motul I can work out a good price for S2KI members.

Joe-san,

Sounds pretty good. MOTUL is one of the best oils out there which has been used for many auto/motorcycle races. I'm down to get them.

I've been using it and loving it! Their "competition FF gear oil" is the same exact oil used for SuperGT(ex-JGTC) race cars.

People have had issues with Royal Purple shearing down in the past. If you're looking for optimal engine reliability I wouldn't use it.

it's a 5 gallon can.....


i've been using HAMP since i got my car and lovin it!


I have decided to go Redline, since I can get it at a low cost

Im also changing transmission and diff fluid.

Will Red Line Gear oil be ok?

Thanks in advance

Blessings

Randy

i used Redline MT-90 for the tranny and 75W90 gear oil for the diff

big difference!! go for it!
