Yeah I'm just trying to save some money here, if possible... Even running 95 would save a bucks at the pump.

98 is about $1.40-1.50 atm in my area (south Sydney).

FAaaark! thats cheap compared to here in Darwin! bout $1.48 here in Darwin for premium 95! Just use 95 if you cant afford 98, i use 95 for my car.

I have a non turbo 32.. i always use premium but with these fuel prices, Im goin broke.. would regular be fine? what difference would it make?

Like what Grant said, 91 is good for a non-turbo skyline.

from what ive heard, Japan have better fuel? but either way, like Flipmo and GorGasm said, it is better if you run a (newer) turbocharged on a higher octane level. 95 or 98 RON.

Just wondering, how much is it for premium at the moment say...... in Sydney? Or Brisbane?

Yep Japanese fuel is heaps better than ours. They use 100 RON on all their cars over there, none of this paying extra for Premium BS (Unless you want to run racing fuel).

Fuel Prices in Adelaide for 98 waver between $1.40 and $1.50+ now. Brisbane is meant to be cheaper (less tax in Queensland)

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
