what grade of engine oil
 
I own a 1995 gen 3 rx7 twin turbo. What type of engine oil do you recommend to use for an oil change? thanks rob

I would say 10w-30 or 20-50

if its cold there use 10-30 if its warm 20-50 use mineral oil. no synthetic bad things can happen.

Bad things can happen with synthetics?

Bad things can happen with any oil that has a high soot content when burned off, synthetic or mineral.

Let's not dare get in this discussion again. It's probably one of the oldest!
If you don't feel comfortable with synthetics then don't use them but I certainly won't hesitate and I think the majority would agree with me.

synthetics are completely fine. stop supporting the myth!
