I'm sure theres a thread somewhere, but i just figured i might as well open a new thread since theres a lot of new people on this website. So back to the question, What's the best oil to run, or is the synthetic oil better?

Castrol Magnatec (Which is Semi-Synthetic) for 3S-GE and 3S-GTE,
wont be too bad for the *S-FE either, But not critical, It's no high performance engine. There are certain conditions to be weary about when choosing a fully synthetic oil, search the net. The same things apply to oil flush aswell. -- For example, an older engine where organic oil residue is creating a seal against a worn seal, a fully synthetic wont have these same properties. I highly recommend oil catch tanks too, Install them and you'll see how much you're keeping out of the intake system after a few drives. Oh yeah, Redline oils are said to be the best for our cars, Especially our gearboxes and diffs. -------------------- Mike W
