Formulated for low friction, supercharged, high horse power & high torque engines set to race circuit specs such as the VR38DETT, this oil contains Polyester, proven for its superlative performance at low temperatures, and will maintain its stability and filming properties across a wider range of driving conditions.

Having taken the Nissan NISMO GT-R RC's newest engine from early tuning through to ultimate solutions, we are convinced that using a Polyester mix is the only way to completely protect and fulfill its performance potential. The inclusion of Polyester expands the operative range of the base oil's functional properties and fully supports the engine's low friction mechanic.

Just like 2108E (0W30) Competition Oil, this oil increases engine output through reduced usage of the detergent dispersants that have been shown to cause friction loss in high-load conditions as well as suppresses the formation of sludge that is a common cause of friction loss in engines running with superchargers.

Designated Oil for the Nissan GTR 

Saying that 2193E (5W40) motor oil was developed especially for the VR38DETT engine is not an exaggeration. This oil grew up with that engine and its development focused on high performance motorsports use: tested in the 2008 Tokachi 24 Hours, run in the Nissan GT-R NISMO RC and Nissan GT-R Club Track Edition, and raced in the 24 Hours Nurburgring. The final result of development testing was the choice of a 5W40 over a 0W40 viscosity grade. 2193E (5W40) is a select synthetic multi-grade oil which mixes polyolesters, known for their superlative viscosity at low temperatures, into the base oil. Formulated for low friction but maintaining generous filming properties, this NISMO-MOTUL motor oil will minimize engine wear to the bearings where pressure is at its highest. 2193E maintains the GT-Rs top performance under high load conditions while providing the engine with the extra protection needed to meet the demands of motorsports use. It's special load reducing qualities work across the whole temperature range: you'll get smooth starts in winter and problem-less city driving. When NISMO-MOTUL got the engine covered, you're free to enjoy your ride.

*2193E (5W40) moto oil is officially recognized as being in conformity with NISSAN warranties when used in the NISSAN GT-R (R35) only.
