Beams 3s (redtop single vvti) Oil Weight

Postby xsspeed » Sun Jul 18, 2010 1:37 pm

Hey guys

Just wondering what you can recommend for a beams 3s oil weight. Car has done 110km. Should I just stick with the 10w/40?

Obviously due to repco sale on oil :lol:

You can't really go wrong with 10w40 in NZ.

I experimented with a few different oils in my 3sgte (lighter, semi-synthetics etc), but kept coming back to regular old Magnatec.

You can buy VVTI specific oil from Toyota, not sure what the difference is.

It's a 10/30W grade oil though.
