G'day fellows, umm i was told that skyline turbo engines needed to be runing at least of 95 octane petrol miniuim, however i've been putting just premium petrol and sometimes unleaded petrol, would anyone knows if thats alright or bad? Also what are the future consequences when leading with premium petrol what will the results be?

thanks guys

The timing is probably set up for 100ron fuel, being an import. As far as I know, you may get excessive ping from the motor if your ECU hasn't relearnt the different fuel. There are guides here on how to reset your ECU, but if you plan on using lower-ron fuel permanently, it'd be worth getting a tuner to adjust the timing based on how much knock you are getting.

Otherwise, if you want better power and less pinging, use 98 ron. =-]

    • I tried the next one up from 600k ohms which is 60M on my multimeter and all readings came out as 0.00 ohms so right now the most accurate is 600k ohms with only a 0.1 ohms difference between coils. Three coils read 1.4 ohms and the other three read 1.5 ohms.
    • surely that is a control arm, not a sway bar. In any case, visual condition should not be an issue, excessive movement under load (eg with a big pry bar) would be the issue. I can't see 99.999% of pink slip places even looking, let alone trying to test it
    • I attached the image of the only thing I found, nothing to do with ohms in the manual only torque values etc. However, being they are so close to each other I am almost certain they are good. Tomorrow I will test the spark plugs while I am there. and look at the ECU connections.
    • Hi Gents. Do u know what 18rim will fit under R32 GTST with no modification of current setup I have. I have buddy Club P1 17x8 on front and 17x9 rears and they fit well.   Will an 18x9 on 35 off set with 235 tyres up front fit? ON the Rears i can run the rim size n fit 255 or 245? or i got option to get 18x9.5 on 35+ Offset n 265?   CHeers
    • And, when measuring and getting <2 ohms, perhaps chose the next larger range than that, rather than something with a k in it!
