Why the hell would anyone want to put these on their car?
They not only make the track defectable, but adds stress to the hub bearings and wheel studs.
Even aftermarket wheels with different offsets than the OEM wheels will do the same thing.
That's why the 9" wheels have +45mm offset, and...
Penrite Fully Synthetic 5W-30 is WSS-M2C913D compliant.
And so is Valvoline SynPower FE (but is slightly thicker).
You can get both from SuperCheap, but they're the only ones I've know of in retail stores.
The reason why labor charges are so high from dealers, is because removing and replacing the oil filter is a pain in the ass!
There's a trap door under the filter, but it's useless as there's pipes/wires running thru the middle of it.
You have to remove the passenger-side wheel, bend and...

Do the Steeda camber plates change the ride height from stock?
i.e. Is the thickness from mating surface on the tower to the bottom of the bearing face (where the strut rod shoulder meets) the same as stock?
H-pipe
You'd think there'd be an Aust. based manufacturer of h-pipes for our S550 V8s?
It's just 2 stainless pipes joined together. :shrug:
Instead of dishing out $400+ on an imported one, someone could really cleanup locally.
This seems to be a new product.
I've periodically checked Penrite's catalog and has never had anything to suit M2C913-C/D. This shows similar specs to the Liqui-Moly Special F I've been ordering online previously, so I might give it a whirl, seems as Supercheap stock it. :thumbsup:
This must've been what it was like for NASA when Apollo 13 was on the dark side of the moon, out of radio contact and not knowing if they were still OK. :shrug:
Another thing to consider is not all 5W-30 oils are equally spec'd.
The viscosity @ 40deg. & 100deg. plus Viscosity index can vary somewhat between various manufacturers.
Some 5W-30s will be closer to 0W-30, while some will be closer to 10W-30.
The regulation seems to be quite broad in it's...
