I get my 33 back in a couple of weeks (hopefully, they've had it for 6 weeks already!) its getting a complete Forged Rebuild. I was wondering what people feel as the best fuel to use, what you guys feel you get the most power and most km's from?

Thanks in advance for the replies! :(

optimax is also pretty good - but in my experience (my car is stock) ultimate does the best. what have u been using? try it with all the top of the range fuels - see which is better.

I have been using BP Ultimate, seems to run pretty well with it, haven't tried anything else though.

out of the normal 98 premium they are all the same. there is little difference between them. ive heard of people saying their engine is tuned on bp premium 98 and they must only use that. its a load of poo and its all the same.

baseline 98 premium, as long as the octane count is the same or close ish its fine and acceptable. ive tried many various 98 premiums all getting the same results. most people claim better economy and so forth on like vortex 98 vs bp premium 98 and so on, its a load of poo.

but overall optimax extreme is the readily (easily) available 100 or 101 octane fuel that would be ideal

yeah this was covered last week, basically i reckon its all the same shit and its all around the same averaged rating. that is, assuming we are comparing true 98 ron fuels. sure there are bad batches of fuel and so forth but overall its probably the same shit. also BP dont have any crap in victoria so they share from other refineries, ie: they borrow tankers & crap

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
