     Where did you hear that synthetics were bad for VR6's.  Everything I 
     have read in FAQ's said the results were terrific, and that is 
     certainly what my experiences have been.  Read the oil FAQ at 
     http://alicudi.usc.edu:80/~jan/cars.html  The only cars I have heard 
     of that don't do well with synthetic are Mazada RX-7's becuase of the 
     rotory engine.  Synthetic oils have come a long way in the last 3years 
     and can be used in any motor as well as mixed with other systhetics 
     and Dino oils.

Whoah!  I thought synthetic oil is not good for VR6s?  Please advice because I'm
     
doing my oil change this weekend.
