PLUS in some cases if you have always run reg oil then switched, you may get a small leak here or there, happened to my friend when he switched in his 300ZX. Just something to think about.

That is an interesting thought. I thought synthetic was good to have for all cars, even those who are still stock 6s.

I was thinking the same thing. Especially in the current months/weather where it's hanging around 90 degrees, why would I need anti-freeze? I'll see if the store has any cheap coolants, otherwise I'll put some fresh water in there. Thanks for the answer!
For oil, would I be looking for a specific weight?
