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. ;)

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
