Changing oil tomorrow...

Changing oil tomorrow...
...and few questions to ask. (i read the sticky, but just wanna hear some updated opinions, maybe there's something new on the market)
Have 98 SE 5 speed w/92K miles on it. Last oil change was 5K miles ago and used synthatic (or whatever).
What oil is best to use? how much should I buy? Anything else I can add to my engine to make it run smoother/better?
thnkx all

Sounds like you might as well stick to synthetic. Mobil 1 or Amsoil are the two best out there. Of course a Mobil 1 filter is a must. As far as additives if you engine is tight I wouldn't use anything.

Either Mobil 1 or Amsoil and either the K&N or Mobil 1 filter. Both filters are almost identical and both are made by champion labs.

the mobil 1 105 filter is for the vq35 only.
the discontinued filter is for the ve30.
the oem filter is several bucks cheaper than the mobil 1 filter, too. i'm sure the mobil one is good but i'd just as soon take the oem filter, even if the price were the same.
