thetic) or equivalent may be used; how-
ever, some performance loss may be
noticed.
Furthermore, replacement of the engine
oil with MOTUL NISMO COMPETITION OIL
type 2193E(5W40) is recommended for
the frequent high performance driving
opportunities.

or abrasive compounds is prohibited.
The use of additives, chemical materials,
abrasive compounds or other high per-
formance engine oils may cause internal
engine damage.
