I knew that, hence why I said the 100% illegal part...

I wouldn't mix it with my fuel.

And I don't use sugarcane, too much effort. I just buy sugar at like $1.50/kg.

ohh i forgot to mention. I filled up with boost 98 on tuesday when i was driving up from the city.

Overall i felt the car running smoother. Milaeage wise it seems to be the same but theres a price difference by about 10cents/liter compared to the normal 98 octane fuel. I will be using this fuel all the time now for this car. so...

There's a United servo which has just opened up near my house - it used to be an old Mobil. When I next need fuel I'm gonna check if they have Boost 98 and try a few tanks to get an impression of how the car will run long-term.

Until now, I would have had to travel quite a distance (and totally out of my way) to get to a United servo, so it's good that I've now got the opportunity to see how it is for myself.

You can actually check out the United website and you will be able to see a listing of the service station which got the boost 98.

Im on my 3rd tanks now im sold on it. Wouldnt get the normal 98 now. Filling up a tank now would cost me no more than $60 now. :)

Just checked, they're still not listed on the website, but they've only been open a few weeks at the most...

When I next drive past I'll have a quick look.

hmm you might want to call the gas station and ask them wheter they have boost 98? Thats wat i did and i asked them about the price too!! They wer a bit reluctant in telling me the prices over the phone.

I was just driving back today from the city to Heathcote and i past wallan and kilmore. These 2 towns and United boost98 and their prices was 10cent different!!!! Keep a sharp eye on the prices dont get ripped off people.

there you go another statisfied user. The best of all is the savings roughly about 10bucks/tanks in savings. doesnt take into considerations the discount fuel vouchers of 4cents/liter.

I've been using it and it's good. Cheaper than bloody regular 91RON from Woolworths in some cases, even with the 4c per litre "discount" they're supposed to give you if you take your shop-a-dockets...

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
