I'm not checking back on this thread either.

Yeah, my GS-R burns exactly 1 quart of 5w30 every 1300 miles...have yet to see any consumption with 10w30 1000 miles into this oil. It'd been burning since I got it...and changing driving habits did nothing. Time to try some thicker dino pulp as stated earlier.

The other day when i was putting on the 4-1 1 piece, i noticed that i was missing a oil pan bolt...so i found one and put it in...and checked the tightness of the rest of the nuts/bolts for the oil pan...to my amazement, many of them were scarily loose. there was a thick layer of grime/oil that the stock heatshields and exhaust manifold were concealing. so go check your oil pans guys! just dont get crazy with tightening them, u dont want to strip out ur blocks.
