Any 2 stroke oil rated for use with injection, which I think is "TC3W" or something like that. That's probably all the oils on the market these days. I use whatever is on sale when I need to buy a jug.

Any name brand 4 stroke oil will be fine in your engine as they all have to pass the same standards. I tend to use whatever is on sale when I have to change my oil.

And I use Fram oil filters just to **** people off.

I use Idemitsu, no issues whatsoever.

but honestly, unlike S1 RX-8, for stock fc, if you're not racing nor worry too much about the sky is falling (like me) then you don't really need to premix.

I heard pre-mixing gives you better luck with the ladies, is this correct?

cheap TCW3 rated oil for daily driving, synthetic oils from the motorcycle shops for racing applications.

if you really want to get fancy, try out some castor 2 stroke oil. i love the smell.
