I didn't know that Honda made its own OEM synthetic motor oil. That's what was used and Jeff was nice enough to give me the remainder of the bottle for top offs.
Not sure if it's their own or made by someone else and rebadged but I have a case and a half of it in my garage... it's all I use in the S for now as well.

Look at the bottom of the bottle and if there is a stylized "P" on it. If so, I can answer what oil is in it.

I had an interesting winter / spring install season.

Nothing like getting into it and discovering bound-up / trashed bushings in the the control arms.

But the worst was discovering that the engine was not bolted to the car anywhere. Seriously, both motor-mounts were completely torn through and the engine was just sitting there.

Those are the breaks when you're prepping a 11 year old roadster with 140k on the clock.

I have a feeling if I brought mine out to a meet, you guys would make me park in the back for sure.

I figure I've had the car over 6 years, so I might as well throw a mod on her. I don't want to rush into things...

Very Nice Pete. I liked the HKS Sam had when we were at the dragon. Speaking of exhaust, the T1R was entirely too loud, so I sold that. I bought something else that should be here in a couple weeks. Apparently overnight from Japan is over some night, not over tonight.
