Nissan Esther Oil??

ALready searched. Nothing! Im surprised.

I know esther oil is 100% synthetic (like that amosil stuff).

Nissan sells their bottles of Esther oil 5W-30 for $10.50

anyone used it? anyone happy?

It's not synthetic, it has a proprietary "nissan" ester blend added. I forget what the base stock of this oil is but it's a high quality dino.

Here you can get 5 qts, filter, and crush washer for less than $60-
