I was just thinking the other day as i filled my skyline up with Bp ultimate, that there is actually other servos that stock 98 octane fuel... Peak and Caltex crossed my mind. I was wondering what you guys think of those servos 98's... are they just as good if not better then BP?

Just another quick question that is totally unrelated to this topic.. when skylines are imported from Japan are they imported dry? by that i mean with all their fluid been drained? Then filled up when they arrive here?

BP Ultimate > V Power > Vortex

The available 98 is usually BP Ultimate, Shell V Power And Caltex Vortex.

I have tried all of these in my GTS-T and it performs best on the BP Ultimate followed by Caltex Vortex and Shell V Power in that order.

In my GTR I run Sheel V Power Racing that is rated at 100. The GTR really loves this stuff and although supply is a pain due to the limited places where you can buy it the hassel of getting it is worth it for the improvement in mid range responsiveness.

I use BP Ultimate 98 RON. I used to use Shell Optimax but my mechanic said it was a bit too dry, BP is a wetter fuel.

I was about to try V-Power Racing 100 RON, but friend told me it does bugger all.

When selling a car in Japan most of the time the owners / dealers don't bother filling it up. (Well I guess you won't bother filling up the car if ya selling it. Basicaly your giving the new owner a free tank of fuel) + the cars are re-tuned for our fuel standards.

I've tried BP ultimate and Vortex, but my r33 gtst doesn't like them, It stalls after you fill it up and I can't notice any power gains and I get worse fuel economy. Mine must be tuned for unleaded 91 or something because it has no problems on that juice.

I got over 605 KMs to a full tank of BP Ultimate this week. 70% highway driving with occasional full throttle, 30% peak hour traffic and local streets.

The light still did not come on so I must have had anothr 10 litres easy in the tank, so I could of easily done 650 KMs to a full tank of fuel.

Talking about economy.

Thats around 9 litres per 100 K... even lower if I still kept driving. ;)

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
