Want to feel better about whatever oil you use? Think about the fact that each and every Honda is run to redline in each gear and then reverse the very second it comes off the line. Without letting the engine warm up. So, considering the oil doesn't reach full circulation for about 2-5 minutes depending on temperature and Hondas are always hitting 200k and above, I rather doubt you could harm your engine so long as you keep something resembling a viscous, slippery liquid in it.

I hear ya there. I use only part synthetic and my engine is just about to go over 230,000. I love it, even though I hope it will die soon so I can put in a more potent engine. But whatever. I would recommend using a part synthetic because it's better than conventional oil and it's not as expensive as full synthetic.

Default Royal Purlple?

What about this stuff? Pretty pricey but has anyone ever heard of it? I doubt I'd ever buy it, but since everyone is talking about the best. Seem's like this might be it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=46098
