Castrol 10w60 Supercar discontinued ??
BreakMyWindow replied to Twistee's topic in General Discussion
The new bottle Castrol 10w-60 is still M car approved. Looks and smells the same too lol. -
Maybe Turners, I bought it off TM from an ex Turners trader.

Bought this last Friday for a good price. Being a track addict these days I was keen to get in to something RWD. The Good… -All paint except rear bumper and hatch lid is original -New RE003’s 225/45/17 on all corners. I think the fronts should be 205/50/17 with these wheels? -BMWP 6 pot Front Callipers -Last owner had it 9 years. Presumably has had annual oil changes every 10-12k -Valve cover gasket recently done, waterpump and tstat look new. -Clutch feels bitey Not so good… -Oil pan gasket. No surprises. -Lifter tick seems persistent, even after bleeding procedure and open road driving -Usual old car wear and tear, the most annoying being the loose rearview mirror (previous installation error and loose retaining prong holding it to windshield) -Shocks feel tired -Needs new brakes all round No dme codes but I reset the adaptations and chucked some 98 in. Goes better now. Plan for now is to tidy it up, add some track focused mods and see how I go!

In terms of goodies just a ticky top end and in desperate need of a clean up and service. Has new RE003’s on it. Hopefully will visit Hampton Downs with in about a month.

Yep I bought it.

I did the club circuit just to be able to do the National. Club is a bit too slow and boring. Nothing to be nervous about on National, just start in the slow group and get some seat time. 🙂- 294 replies

I was on the National getting hassled by all the race cars in my sh1tbox P11. Saw your car at around 8am, want sure who the owner was and was in a bit of a rush for a 🚽 😅 Next national is in November which is ages away. b13e28fb-c036-4bae-a491-29538f0b1c68.mov- 294 replies

Buy with confidence, James changes the oil in his cars probably more than his undies and never takes them to redline.

Bugger it’s not a manuel.

Best to get an N47 powered car that’s had the timing chain job done already. -
