Message	I usually run 5 quarts, or 5.5 quarts 169,xxx miles on the motor and turbos. 135-140 compression all the way around. turbos have zero endplay and rotate totally freely. (checked 1 month ago when doing clutch). and on top of that; 339rwhp/359rwtq at 11.5psi those that have ridden with me can be very well assured that I do not baby my car on the road course. FWIW, there have been known problems (but rare) on high banks with high downward G forces, pulling the oil out of the heads. I may choose to increase PSI of the oil system... i'm just not sure about that yet. (planning on 45psi idle) "As the Z32 gets older and decreases in value it becomes affordable by lower income and often less desirable people whose tastes reflect their personality and social standing.- Marshall 17:37:05 10/10/03 Petz #3
