check this for a summary of used oils in the 4AGE/4AGZE (and well, the complete driveline Puh).

opinions about best oils are plenty, but most agree: just use the oil grade that is stated in your booklet. Just about any 10W40 oil will do for the engine, whatever you prefer.

oil pressure at idle can often be much lower than in load conditions.. I dont know if that's a usefull thing to know. Did seem to be higher in most 4age's that I've seen than in my moms miata.

I usually use 10-30w for new engines and 20-50w for older engines.
