i wanna switch to synthetic oil for my 94 gt. i have castrol gtx 10w-30 and a fram filter in it now. i though about royal purple and castrol sytec. i heard that castrol syntec isn't the best synthetic oil and i also heard that royal purple isn't good if your car has over 90,000 or so miles. so i just wanted to hear what people have to say. my friend, who has a 2000 gts said that mobile 1 and an oem filter is what people recommend for his car. so what is the best synthetic oil and filter for a 6gc?

i've used alot of different things; 5w30/10w30 castrol full syth, mobil1 5w30/10w30 full syth, royal purple 10w30, if i could find motul i'd try that too. but no luck. course i didnt look so hard.
never noticed a diference betweeen mobil1 or royal purple, but my car doesnt like castrol lol! speaking of which, its time for an oil change... |
