I went in to buy some Redline today from my local speed shop and he told me the prices went up to $9.99 a quart so I decided to give the royal purple a try at $6.99 a quart.

Anyone using this oil? How is it in comparison to the Redline?

 

I've heard Royal Purple is pretty good. I run Amsoil W2000 in mine, its $$$.

 

ive always heard wonderful things about it. all my friends back in the day used to run them in their muscle cars.

 

All synthetic has the same base. Meaning, it's all the same except what each co. adds to it. Royal Purple has many fans. How many more than Redline, Amsoil, Castrol Syntec, Mobile One, etc. who knows? Go ahead and get the most expensive type you can find, you'll probably get what ya pay for, I geuss.

 

i've only heard great things about Royal Purple.... ive thought about putting it in mine but i dont have that kind of money yet lol. if i do try the r/p ill probably redo all the fluids like diffs, tranny, and engine with it.

 

i use the "max-gear" in the x-case, front and rearend. so far so good, i haven't put many miles on it yet.

but i did notice and check, that the rearend runs about 20 degrees cooler with the RP vs toyota OEM

 

How did you check that? I need to know, seriously. What kind of wizardry have I not been let in on? I need one of whatever it be.

 

temp gun

you can get cheaper ones at harbor freight $25, otherwise their around $80

 

 

I run it. Not sure what else I can say about it...

 

ive used royal purple on my rx7 race cars fro a while, never had any oil issues when using it
