Eagle 1662 Report post Posted October 10, 2020 13 hours ago, Olaf said: I used to get the plastic 20l for $160. Can confirm the cardboard 20L is much better than the plastic option. Far easier to dispense with the included tap and obviously stores better. Probably much easier to drain once it near empty too. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted October 10, 2020 How does the tap attach? I'm not sure what's in the box to be honest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1662 Report post Posted October 10, 2020 Plastic bladder inside box with a screw cap and tap, remove the cap and tap screws onto the cap thread. Once you have it setup on a table etc you just rotate the box 90 degrees towards you and becomes a mini oil dispensary. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2078 Report post Posted December 9, 2022 Cheapest I have seen HPR5 for quite a while. https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/penrite-penrite-hpr-5-engine-oil---5w-40-5-litre/14911.html?cgid=SCN8006450 Maybe we should keep posting any half decent relevant oil prices here. I also see Nulon has a new HPR5 equivalent. https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/nulon-nulon-full-synthetic-apex-performance-engine-oil-5w-40-6-litre/646302.html?cgid=SCN01070403 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stocked up on 2x 20L boxes while i could. Rarely see them on special these days and everything has gone up in prices these last 2 years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vass 830 Report post Posted January 3, 2023 Sorry to hijack a bit but what are people's thoughts on HPR 5? Have always stuck to Castrol Edge 5w-30 but seen a few jump ship. Any reason to go for one over the other or just what's cheaper at the time? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1662 Report post Posted January 3, 2023 I use HPR5 in all my own cars and most customers. I prefer the 40 viscosity and its usually cheaper especially 20L trade\special price. I also remember reading a technical thread on bobsoilguy about the base stock etc, the consensus was that is was decent. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hengst filters are $35 from BNT. Anything euro is marked up a fair bit for retail customers compared to Japanese etc. People buying parts at Repco arent typically the shop around type so they take advantage for that. 5 years ago a Gates idler pulley for an M54 was $180 retail and $90 trade.
