SEARCH! There was a HUGE thread on this a year or so ago...
Several pages of what everyone runs and why (climate, enviornmental factors, application, etc)

20W50 first oil change, whatever you want after.

This is assuming you got a rebuild. If not then your motor is used anyways, run whatever you want.

i prefer 10w40 Motul 300V on turbo cars and 5w30 on NA cars.

[wootwoot]

I'm not an ass! I simply stated my preference of synthetic oil. The viscosity you chose depends on your climate and how you drive your car. So that is your decision to make!

I use Mobil1 10w30 as well, but damned if I buy those Mobil filters for 3 times the price of what a filter at Nissan costs me...
And I change my oil when the oil tells me to, I USED to change it religiously at 3000 miles, but found that to be wasteful, the oil still looked just fine at that point most of the time.
