views on royal purple oil

Hi has any 1 had any experience with royal purple oils and would you recommend them thanks

Did royal purple in my 07wrx last week. Really pleased but not had experience of much else. Was quite amazed the oil is purple too.

Lol thanks mate thinking about giving it ago I aint hurd nothing but good things about it

I used it for a while and had no problems and seemed like very good oil. Only thing it was expensive and was hard to find so I switched over to Millers about a year ago.

You already got oil.? Scott @ option Autohouse at derwenthaugh sorted me out. Git it it very quickly for me.

Millers all the way

Glad you like Nunu cheers, unbelievable oil, every customer says the same thing. wouldnt run mine on anything else now

I did text ur work number Scott. Car feels mint. Thanks.

AAS exhaust in Newburn are also Royal purple dealer. Read a lot of good things about it but not really used it myself.

Millers for me but only because I have opted for this to start with.

I use millers as was told but might change when do service next year

Never heard of it tbh - but I always use Millers 10w60 NT oil in my quite highly modified vehicle   

Overpriced shite IMHO

I pay £55 for 5 litres of Millers Nano Tech oil. Millers NT oil is an award winning oil - never heard of Royal Purple and why would you put a dye in it to make it purple in colour? Surely this is adding an unnecessary chemical to the engine oil? Can't judge it really as have never used it but I won't be trying it either as all the Subaru specialists I know have recommended Millers for my own engine and I change it every 2500-3000 miles

Hi guys
I don't post here very often but some know me from SNET
Royal purple is a very good oil & works well in performance engines.
As for the trade of between millers , I personally have used both & I found my EJ257 more consistent to royal purple in oil usage as to millers.
Saying that millers is a great oil & I am currently running this ..

Both oils are suitable take your pic

Regards

Hey think we've spoke on snet, cheers for input. Gets pritty quiet over here, I hover between both.

Hello m8 , nice to spk again

I find royal purple to be overpriced rubbish, tried it back in 2003 in my 1st 400hp subaru, dropped it after 4k miles and it was as thin as piss, that was enough to put me off the stuff for good. Could have got the same results from supermarket oil.

Of course that's your own personal view JG
Doubt the guys over the pond in NASCAR & Top Fuel would want you in thr pit crew with that remark (laughs)
Hey it's a big oil market / each to thr own

Regards

Would be good to see back to back tests though after say 3/4000 miles in a big power motor, see whos oil has degraded the most.

Maybe they wouldn't but I bet they drop it after every race and don't do 10k miles on it like the a average subaru owner would, I find going by me own personal experience has always done me well in the past so I will be sticking with that formula

So how ain't I seen ur car knocking bout Newcastle, ? But suppose its a pritty big place,

I think royal purple transmission oil was really good, expensive @ £140 but worth it, I put it in the white classic when the box started to wine and crunch, it was like purple syrup it worked and still works done about 5000 more miles and shed load of launches on the strip

I have just done a royal purple oil and filter change this morning at the cost of 69 quid after I took the car for a drive for most of thr day I am very pleased with the results engine actually runs smother and quieter I have used millers and other top brands in the past but would recommend royal purple to any 1

Lets see how long it lasts
