    Hey all, was curious on your thoughts about moving from 5W-30 to 10W-30 on a D series engine with over 100k (107,000 to be exact). I'm changing my oil this week and was planning on switching to 10W-30 now. would it be a smart move? I'm currently using Mobile 1 synthetic. Thanks

    My EK! 98 ex BEFORE and AFTER (tons of PICS)

    after a nice cleansing and waxing. BUT MY CAR STILL ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH TO ME. please chime in and add what else I can add to my baby to set it off even more. Chrome fat lipped CCW rims and more low is probably the only thing that will get me higher.
