If that stuff is for real, then I'd say it's pretty good. There is a thread mentioning Idemitsu and Mazda Factory Race stuff in the performance subforum.

If you look at the back of the label they only recommend 1/2oz PER gallon. Most people on who premix are using 1oz. Thats interesting.

So maybe it is all just bullshit and that figure they advertise to make sure you dont put too much in...

Wondering what people in australia are using for premix? I'm just using some Mobil 2 stroke oil I found at the gas station.

****, at 16.99 a quart shipped, that's MORE EXPENSIVE than Jack Daniels Black Label and ALMOST as expensive as Heinz 57 steak sauce.

I bet it's about the equivalent of 2.50 a quart in Japan.

Pass !

I've seen it. Haven't used it. The seller is trying to screw you. See

http://rx7.com/store/rx7/fcengine_maintenance.html

$5.00 per quart.

check out volume 1 issue 8 of the rxtuner magazine... They have a few advertisments in it for idemitsu racing oil. Says that you can get the oil through www.rx7.com (someone else gave a link to this) and www.rotorsportsracing.com (I looked and couldn't see it but maybe give them a call) good luck
