I think Nissan takes the prize for valve technology. Somebody do some homework on Nissan VVEL. if its not already tested then it could probably be available already on the VQ37DE or even a VQ38DE/DET for the new GT-R. anyways, the concept of VVEL itself, MAD! the problem is WHEN we will get to expe...

Not too sure what you're talking about, but Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) are not supposed to advertise vehicles hp exceeding 276hp (206kw) due to Gentleman's Agreement. Example: Skyline has been tested on a dyno to reach 325hp factory stock and Nissan advertised it as 276hp...same goes for Toyota...

Yeah that's what I gathered as the reason Honda states for using these spec. Honda engines run some rediculously tight clearances.

Any1 know where to get 10w30 Mobil 1 or a 10w30 full synthetic?

yup Sweeeeet!!! Another question....any1 really uses the oil specifications Honda quotes? For instance the manual says use 10W30 grade but I'm thinking that in our climate and with the amount of traffic yuh does be in that's a little too thin and maybe a 15 or 20W50 is better. Any thoughts on this?
