...from the hours I spent here reading in the Forums, I came to understand Synthetic oil is not good for our RX8. And 5w-20 is too thin from what I read...
I think the definitive answer on what weight to use is that page from the Australian owner's manual that has a "which oil" vs temperature chart. Almost every weight that's been recommended here is acceptable.

And i personally saw a couple of engines have problems with the mobil 1 we get here on the long term. It doesn't even mix as well as other oils though, not much worse but not the same as others like valvoline's and royal purple's products.
Of course we don't have much money to try stuff but add our small, minimal tests to a way bigger knowledge and you know that you can avoid buying some brands if you have other chances.
