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...

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
