yea either pepboys or i think rob has some! but if i were you i would go to PAW on nordoff and Oso they have all of it and even redline fluids too! i use the mobil 1 that works fine for me, hey man and if u need help just give me a call or something, or if u dont have all the equipment i have jacks and everything, so we can do it at my house if u want! and since its your first oil change just to tell you, your gonna lift the car from the drivers side, oil filter and drail plug are right next to each other! i also bought a new drain plug too for mine when i did my first oil change, the magnet on the bolt looses its magnification overtime!

well yea i get off school at 2:30! i know im 17 years old but i do everthing on my car myself!! getting ready for the cam to do by myself too!! lol i forgot the size of the drain plug but i know its metric! just let me know after you buy the oils or we can go find the oil u want together or something, but just dont wait till the sun goes down to do the oil change! working in the dark sucks! are all your suspension components stock?? i have my grease gun if u need it! on my car i added the poly bushings so i have the fittings to grease them but im not sure bout yours

they cost a little more and are not quite as good at filtering.

Also go with pennzoil platinum over mobil 1 is has better shearing characteristics then mobil and costs less.
