Wow those photos took alot of planning, and risk at 150mph!!!


So you changed the oil and filter about 38 times, that's approx every 5000 miles. Interesting.

Most of my cars, I change oil every 4 months about 3-5K miles. This car had a 15000 mile interval. So I have been changing it once a year 10-12K. After this thread I think i will just change it along with my other cars every 4 months.

I started every...

10,000 miles in the beginning.
But when I moved to Florida and started driving it on a daily basis (2000) and tracking it almost on a monthly basis I started to change the oil between 3,000 and 4,000 miles.
It's worked well.
Initially it was Mobil 1 10W40 and after 90,000 miles it's been Mobil 1 15W50.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
