Here's an Ultra UOA on a G37 posted on BITOG. 4K miles on oil, 16K miles on car:

Since this thread was bumped after almost 2 years for some reason, I'll post my UOA here as well.

Nice BB... Are you going to go for the 8,000 mile interval this time around?

I go 7500 on the sedan and probably won't push it further. Didn't get another UOA, I didn't see a need.

I have another one from my coupe with 8138 miles. I'll try to remember to post it when I get home.

You forgot.

Nice results with the Ultra! I'm still using Platinum. Next oil change I really should send in a sample.

Can Ultra Euro be had nowadays, and if so, from where?

Ultra Euro is hard to come by right now, but it will soon be readily available.

I did forget. But since I saw this thread bumped, I remembered and will now post it up for everyone's benefit.
