Can anyone help with the following....

Whats the best oil for the RX (eg full synthetic)?

As the Ron rating is different in the UK to Japan should i be using an additive in addition to super unleaded?

What size speakers fit in the doors?

Thanks

Good old Castrol GTX 10/40 changed every 1500 miles is perfect.

Shell Optimax is the fuel of choice, 98 RON, you can get better in tins or additives, but unless you are running serious boost you will be ok with Optimax.

Cheers,

Richard

Mineral oil only on the rotary mate.  Castrol GTX 10 40 is fine.

If you want to use synthetic then go top of the line.  Gary on this site can sort you out with Royal Purple if you click through the Rotarytarts link above.

You can put in additives, but you should be okay with Optimax, BP ultimate at a push if there\'s no shell station nearby.

Not sure of the sizes for the door speakers I\'m afraid but I\'m sure someone else will happen along shortly and sort you out.
