Shenzo, the new big player in the market!

GUYS GUYS GUYS!! Sorry I've been away, away for way too long.

This is the first post of 2014. I've been busy with work and busy with finding better products to sell. One that's beneficial for your engines. I present you as per below,

Shenzo Oils!

A few FAQs as per below will answer your questions :


1. Why Shenzo? Why did you pick this on top of other oils?
- I have known this particular supplier for many years and always had faith in products he chose to distribute. I heard of this oil circling the market for quite some time and didn't know he was the one selling it as we don't meet up often. The moment I found out he was the one supplying this, I was eager to find out more, on WHY he chose this and not other oils.

2. Would you classify this oil as a good oil in your personal automotive dictionary and why?
- YES. This oil is made and blended in Japan. Japanese base oils. Bear in mind that our sensitive little engines are not in favor of oils that are from the depths of the middle eastern deserts. They are high in salt and sulfur which is a big no-no for our engine. The Japanese and German oils are from undersea, which is much refined in terms of purity. Even our local Pet***** oils are from the middle east. They get good oils locally off the South China Sea but sell them off and buy back cheapo oils for processing all for the sake of money.

3. How is this going to work in my engine?
- Oils have 3 main purpose. Luricate, cool, protect. However, on top of it's good base oil, Shenzo uses the very best additives and blends to ensure this oil performs and protects well when used long term. This includes close to zero evaporation of engine oil during high revving and hot weather. Some customers tend to lose oil over time eventhough their piston ring tolerances are tight.

4. API SN you say? Most or every oil now has that.
- Most claim to have them, or at least SM. You all may not know what it is, but it's a donut looking logo that's on the front of the bottle written API SN. Kindly note that a lot of companies are abusing this logo and you can do a search for each and every of the oil's company name on the API website. More info on API Licensing also can be found here.
Their certificates can be found here

It isn't at all cheap to get API licensing and endorsement. An oil may say "Exceeds API SM specifications" but it does not mean that it has the certification. Below are years where specifications were established setting new benchmarks on tests :

SG = 1993 formula
SH = 1996 formula
SJ = 1997 formula
SL = 2001 formula
SM = 2004 formula
SN = 2011 formula (SHENZO racing oil)


5. Why should I use SN and not SL or SM or anything earlier?
- Well, if you have an old car, not an issue. But if you have a real new car, requiring specific engine oils, be aware. In comparison, the SN formula is more refined technologically.  Better blends, better additives, better antifriction properties, better cooling agents, etc. Take an Audi, VW or BMW for example. These engines are made with tighter tolerances, smaller oil channels and are more compact to the 90s engine of the same capacity. You want your oil to reach out to the engine engine's bearings and journals faster or as fast as possible without risking damage on startup and the SN oils are capable of doing so. On top of that, these engines also tend to lose engine oil over time. The latest shenzo oil are designed not to evaporate as fast as their competitors oils.


6. Can I race with Shenzo Oil?
- Yes. In fact, a few of the MME and S1K guys in Sepang were using this oil and the oil loss rate is half as slow as compared to competitor's oils. Temperature was pretty stable too.



7. So many grades available, what should I use?
- We do have various grades as per below :

SHENZO CHALLENGER	20W-50	SN
SHENZO HIGH-RPM	15W-40	SN
SHENZO INFINITY	5W-30	SN	Resource Conserving	GF-5
SHENZO INVINCIBLE	5W-40	SN
SHENZO RUSH-GT	10W-30	SN	Resource Conserving	GF-5
SHENZO SMART	10W-30	SN	Resource Conserving	GF-5
SHENZO SUPER-GT	10W-40	SN

 The smaller and also newer engines can run on the 5w30 Infinity series. The oil is pretty thin, but still retains its viscosity and does not break down under extreme heat. The thicker grades like 15w40 and 10w40 can be used on moderately aged vehicles and turbo engines. As for the 20w50, this will be specifically for old dinosaur-aged vehicles that are losing oil not through evaporation, but compression loss.

I am well trained to pick a suitable oil for your engine and you can ask me anytime.


8. The above says Resource Conserving GF-5, what does this mean?
- These oils are so-called energy saving oils. Also licensed under API, only on 30grade. This is known as the Starburst Logo. There are a minority of oil companies abusing these logos and slapping them onto their 40grade oils. These oils on tests are proven to save fuel due to good kinetic viscosity on certain temperatures.



9. You sure you got API license?
- Yes. In fact, you can actually ask ANY oil company to show you their certs. Challenge them and see if they can produce one.


10. What kind of oil change interval do you recommend?
- I would recommend 10k intervals on these oils. My 5w30 and 5w40 states 15000km. The OCI for these oils are stated by API themselves and not based on assumptions. However, I would recommend to just stick to 10,000km as we don't really have american fuel or clean american air lol.


11. You got 5l package?
All Shenzo oils are sold in 4litre package.


12. They say different package, different blends. Like those of S**** and Cas**** you find in hypermarket got different blends than the one selling in sparepart shop. What about Shenzo?
- True that. Different country have different budgets, ambient temperature, fuel, climate, and conditions. They request that oil companies put in either the best available blends or cheaper blends based on both budget and the said conditions. Problem in the oil market is that there are a lot cross border sales resulting in oils of different blends reaching end users without their knowledge. Shenzo will be the very first in the world, and is in the midst of putting serial numbers on their containers to track down which blend goes where as each oil is specifically and carefully blended to suit each and every country's conditions ensuring the best for end users.

13. Most oils in the market are sold 5w30 and 5w40 as fully synthetics, 10w30 10w40 as semi synthetics, 15w40 and 20w50 as minerals. What about Shenzo?
- All Shenzo oils are fully synthetics, regardless of the amount of polymers put in to stretch its viscosity over temperatures.

14. Are we supposed to care about 5w 10w and 15w?
Generally, in our weather, not necessarily. However, the cold viscosity does affect OUR(climate) cold start, but only to a certain extent. Hence, when you shake a brand new 5w40 and a 10w40, the 5w40 feels thinner. The 10w40 has got more base oil and less additives compared to a 5w40.




I think that pretty much sums up all the questions in your head. I have started selling this oil and the selling price is as per below :
