I'm using the Mitsu Eneos oil, 2 times already, change at 10k km. I'd say just fine. Eneos is quite a well known oil brand from Japan. The API rating on this oil is a bit old though, SM only if I remember correctly. The base oil is probably also not the highest grade. That's why they are much cheaper than those latest and highest grade full synth but I think still ok for regular daily cars as long as you do proper OCI.

As for the Lexus oil, it's made by UEA. I never used before but I know many in my car club who have been using for a long time, also fine. Probably similar class to the Mitsu Eneos.

Thanx for your clarification..
I'm using Mitsubishi 5w40 for my civic fd1 2007 1.8cc
For 9000km interval.
Feels alright for me too..
