Honda, Toyota and Nissan antifreezes are the best.

Yes, followed by Honda and then Nissan. All 3 are silicate free I believe.

I used the AMSOIL PG coolant for a few years in our '93 Nissan and in two other cars without any issues. I don't sell hardly any of it but do have one customer/friend who has used the PG Coolant in his 4 cars (Toyota, Volvo and two Subarus) for the past several years...the Toyota is an '83 Celica (which he treats as a collector car) and he just drove it on a 500 mile trip without incident.

Here's a link to the product info: http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/ant.aspx

The PG coolant is currently going for ~$19/gallon (my cost) so it's not exactly cheap...
