98ron

[turbosuk]

do turbo skylines have to run on 98ron

just woundering with the way fuel is

going up

[Primordial]

Yes they do.

It's illegal to put non premium fuel in a premium car

[Abo Bob]

It's also illegal to eat raw onions in the park but that doesn't stop some people.

I heard you can die from that!

[Primordial]

Isnt that dogs who can die from that corinne?

Lol.. yes, same goes if they eat chocolate.

[Primordial]

Someone who eats a raw onion like eating an apple is sure to die from doing something else equally as stupid

[D_I_F]

I don't know how anyone could even cut up an onion. Everytime I do my eyes roll back into my head and I can't open my eyes for at least 15 mins!

this it not funny. how about in future if you see a thread posted in the wrong section instead of whoring it up as usual, hit report post and a moderator can move it to the relevant section? that would be much more constructive.

and for mark, if your GTST is completely standard I would say you can get away with 95 if you wish, but once you have a few mods like more boost, exhaust, tune etc then use of 98 is pretty much mandatory. and to be honest even in a standard skyline I would personally only use 98.

thanks for that richard just thought id ask i know it must have sounded like a dumb question

but thanks all the same

Here here.

98 is recommanded (& must for modded cars), but I think you can get away with 95 for fairly stock car.

Well I only use 98 (BP ulitmate & Vortex 98), a friend from work uses regular 95 on his 180sx & it seems to run fine.

Then again, his car does seem to sh*t itself everynow & then... not sure if its the fuel though.

[Abo Bob]

Sorry Mark. My bad.

It just seemed a little funny that someone who has owned their Skyline long enough to be finished with it and want to sell it would not know what fuel to put in it. I thought you were having a lend of us.

[DECIM8]

Can you really die from onions?! lol

My car is standard, and pings a bit on 98RON. I would never ever ever put 95 RON in it.

They are designed for 100RON!! Why be so nasty to your car. If you can't afford to put the proper fuel in your car go buy a Charade. They go hard.

[siddr20]

^ why is it pinging?

Shouldnt be doing it at all

[Kinks]

I checked timing last night and it was a fraction advanced, now it's dead on 15 degrees. It's better, but still get a very small amount of knock at 3000RPM on 7psi (boost solenoid trick).

Spark plugs are tan coloured, so it could handle being a touch richer but they look fine for a standard engine. My exhaust is all standard, I would probably get some gains by getting a dump/front pipe and higher flowing cat. Since the skylines run richer once you open them up it might be just enough to make a difference..

sorry but that is codswallop. they are not 'designed' for 100RON. I would love to know where these myths come from.

[DECIM8]

I believe they are tuned on 100ron and I believe thats what he was refering too. Becuase jap fuel is rumored to be 100ron..
