Kev 16v's post in Castrol Edge vs Magnatec was marked as the answer
I would consider Magnatec to be a semi synthetic (despite the label), whereas Edge is Castrol's premium oil.
The 1Z-FE is perfectly happy to run on semi synthetic, hence me (and Matt), from time to time recommending ECP's Triple QX for those on a budget, or need a five litre quantity.
However, Edge is a more highly refined oil, and while half price, represents good value for money given its quality. I'll happily pay £24.50 once a year, knowing this is good "stuff".

Asking this type of question on a forum, often results in lots of different opinions. Some owners can get quite anal about oil, and are only happy if they're spending £50+, while others believe "oil is oil", and any brand will "do the job", as long as it's the correct viscosity.
HTH.

Kev 16v's post in Tte alloys was marked as the answer
The TTE "Grandstand" alloy wheel is one type I've never come across, so I'm unsure if they take flat, or tapered nuts.
As it's crucial the correct nuts are fitted, I strongly recommend you phone Toyota in Sheffield quoting one of the two different part numbers in the link below, for a definitive answer..
