why use that kind of oil? Ive never heard of anyone using that. Just run your regular 10w30 and you should be fine unless its some type of special situation or use. NGK TR6's are a good choice for plugs. Coolant, really whatever you want. I've heard to stay away from Dex-cool. I went with Prestone.

hmmm, not to be a dick but you do not have an evo engine in your TA. I would run 10w30 for normal conditions, maybe different if you are strictly racing or live in an extra warm or cold environment.

Most use 10w30, 5w30, or 0w40. I don't know of any other mainstream used.

Evans

Now that ive read up on and used it personally EVANS coolant IS!!the best stuff out there exspespeciallyon a FI engine where blown head gastets are more prevalant because unlike regular coolant,,, Evans doesnt hurt the bearings if coolant gets down in the bearings with the engine oil !!!Being a former 87 GN owner!!, that had at least 20 blown head gaskets in the time i owned my car, Regular antifreeze is oK for stock engines THATS IT!!Ide go with a Evans coolant and water pump!! You cant gop wronge my man!!
