congratulations and welcome! im sure everyone will agree, only use 98 octane, i use shell 99% of the time and caltex is next in line. my mechanic said that they are all pretty much the same but where possible use the same pump at the same servo all the time.

post up some pics for everyone to see

+1 BP ultimate

ive used the Vpower ethanol 100 stuff couple of times but dont really trust it :rofl:

How is that stuff anyway? Does that extra 2 Octane make any difference?

I stick to BP as advised by my mechanic.

Also different fuel companies have different additives in their 98 Octane. SO personal choice / ppls experiance.

I go BP > Mobil > Caltex > Shell... IMO

^^ Friend told me he used it (100 Octane) he did not notice anything compaired to 98 Octane.

Plus Our cars would have had to be tuned for AUS fuel and I guess at the time 98 was pretty much the highest, when I bought my car.

100 only came out early last year from memory but was probley avaliable at selected Shell stations prier to all.

+ 1 to bp ultimate..

I think its best to stick to this fuel... as most skyline drivers use it.

Although whatever you choose to use, i think its best to stick with it and continue to use the same fuel, as said by someone above. Swapping between fuels all the time i personally dont think is good for your car...

Congrats on the pick up. Definatly only use bp ulitmate. Dont stinge out on fuel.

LOL! Funny you say that, I saw a guy filling up his Ferrari 360 Spyder at 7 Eleven.

I wouldn't even put that stuff in my Mitsubishi Lancer GLi.

lol, im not sure if this is true, as it was on aca or tt... but they said that all the fuel that is in these bowsers, comes from the same production plant.

so it wont make a difference what BRAND it is, just what ron rating it is.

lol, if anyone knows if the petrol thing is false, please correct me...i did hear is on aca/tt after all:S

Always used bp ultimate in my skylines but have been trying shell racing Vpower 100 fuel for the last couple of months.

Dont know if i like it. Cant feel any difference.

Going back to BP Ultimate though!!

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
