Hey just wondering what sort of petrol i can use in my car. I've just been using the normal unleaded but since petrol prices are cheap i can put in anything now. I know theres Premium Unleaded and at BP Petrol stations theres another one called "BP Ultimate Unleaded". So yeah can i use any type of them in my car and what would be the best to use? I'm guess the BP Ultimate Unleaded since it has a higher percentage of octane. Also whats the equivalent to BP Ultimate Unleaded at other petrol stations? I'm sure other petrol stations would have a similiar type of petrol to that but under another name.

Anyway i know its a rather dumb/boring question but i thought theres no harm in asking anyway. Just making sure i don't put in some petrol thats going to be bad for my car.

the r33 skyrice, which i assume u do have, is to be run on a MINIMUM OF 95RON fuel. look under the bonnet, and the placard will tell u what u need to know. ultimately for only 2-3 cents more 98 is a far safer option.

but for u i reccomend 95ron fuel, u seem to be cheap, is 115 for 98 too expensive for u?

No need to be a dickhead about it.

I spent $13,000 on my car.

$8,533 for respray and fixing it after i crashed it.

The second i get my car back i'll be spending at least $500 to get window tint and an immobilisor + keyless entry.

So do i sound cheap to you?

I've filled up my car like 3 times since i got it and put in normal petrol since i didn't know what the difference was. I didn't want to put in any of the ultimate or anything incase it would be bad for my car.

:D

Are you retarded?

I'm not lecturing anyone about anything and i'm not loaded, i'm 18 years old. I was just being cautious as to what petrol to put in my car, i thought normal unleaded petrol was fine since 90% of cars use it. I didn't want to WASTE money by paying more than i needed for petrol. But since i now know that normal petrol isn't good for my car, ofcourse i'm not going to use it anymore and i will be using BP Ultimate instead. The closest petrol station to my house is BP which is good.

Next time you reply to me, address what i just wrote. I've now written that twice, you'd then realise that i'm not cheap and that i just know nothing about cars so i thought normal petrol was fine.

I'd like to point something out that seems to have gone unnoticed. WTF is with the little dickweed calling a senior forum member a dickhead and getting away with it. So lets just get to the god damn point. Tyson put 98 god damn ron in your NA skyline. For f**ks sake while your at it take a couple of teaspoons of cement and harden the f**k up (note i said cement not semen).

Ok glad thats all sorted. Dude being a dick to senior members is a surefire way to find yourself discluded from group activities. I am sure deep down your a decent kid so show the lads some respect and in time you might just earn some.

Anyone else heard about NSW and how by 2011 or 2012 they plan to only sell 98octane and e10?

Sad day for motorists...

That is sad, think about all the mums & dads with "regular" cars now gonna have to spend extra cents per litre on fuel that their car don't need.

but for u i reccomend 95ron fuel, u seem to be cheap, is 115 for 98 too expensive for u?

I thought I was the cheap one, read my signature... I save $ by eating expired food :)

No Offence, but you sound like a kiss ass mate. :P

And maybe he shouldn't have called him a dickhead, but the senior dood was being a bit of a smart ass so you give a little and you get a little.

      Decided to upgrade my pressurised plastic coolant expansion tank for a fancy pants alloy version The OEM versions can get brittle, even the new plastic one I got when I first got the car is a starting to show signs of "stress" I wasn't cheap, but it is basically unbreakable

      RB25DET Neo Rebuild

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Morning all, I have an RB25DET Neo that's in need of a rebuild. Will need new pistons etc due to detonation damage. Would anyone be able to recommend a shop in Southeast Queensland who I could bring my long motor to for a rebuild? Just want someone who knows RBs and whos built a bunch of them before. TLDR - recommended engine shops for RB rebuild.

      Gday Thought it was about time I started a build thread! As expected this project has snowballed into a huge financial liability, but unless you’re strong willed and responsible, it’s not a surprise. Background -  My first turbo car was an R32 GTS-4, got my full license and then totalled my Au Falcon a week later, so while trying to sell my RMZ450 dirtbike to buy another car a bloke offered to swap the R32 which at the time I felt like I was ripped off but looking back and seeing prices of those now ($40kish) it was a good deal, I didn’t know enough about these cars to appreciate what I had so sold it before the RB20 blew up. Between here and there, out of 12 cars I’ve owned the note worthy ones are a V8 Lexus SC400 (soarer), a couple of XR6 Turbos and my beloved S15 which I had for about 3 years, picked it up for $12500, repairable write off but she was fine, gun metal grey/pewter and bone stock/unmolested until I got my hands on it. Ended up spending about the value of the car and 280kw, 2 demerit points by the time I got defected and sold it for $14500 (also $40kish in today’s market, rip) Fast forward to the present day, I’m in a much better position financially and daily an MQ Triton (great cars, pipe down Ranger Bois), I cruised marketplace and car sales for a few months looking for another R32, the best deal I could find was an absolute rust bucket half finished project for $12000, until this R33 popped up in Port Macquarie for $18k - unregistered and barely running but decent shape, kept an eye on it for a few weeks and the price steadily dropped, $16k then $15k then $14k, that was the point where I was like shit someone’s gonna snatch this up! It was owned by a young bloke who had big plans but him and his missus just had a baby so smartest move financially for them but big gain for me. So 2 days later I’m towing a car trailer to pick this thing up. Roughly 2 weeks and $3500 later I’m cruising around Newcastle in my beat up R33 all smiles and dose noises! It only needed some basic shit to get it going, coil packs and air flow meter, electrical stuff and all fluids changed, 158k kms and running pretty good, nice smooth engine after oil and coolant flush - when I say coolant I mean it had been filled up with tap water, every gallery and heater element was filled with rust, 8-9 flushes later and still had brown liquid coming out but she’ll be right. The car was painted R34 Bayside Blue at some point but whether it was a cheap job or just not looked after is anyone’s guess, clear coat flaking like sausage roll.  Was rethinking my choices and contemplating life, had it up for sale for $22k - still cheaper than any registered R33 but got little interest, next minute I had an opportunity at work - 6 months overseas for good money, so that was a no brainer, fast forward again and here we are with a 50% finished project. Current Mods - 200ish KW according to butt dyno Was tuned with Apexi PowerFC EBC (old school Greddy Profec)  Stock turbo (more shaft play than a Tinder date gone right) 3inch turbo back Varex muffler  Aftermarket injectors of mystery size, Power FC showed 36% duty cycle at full boost so not behd good size Someone had good intentions but stuck with the stock R33 MAF so we had misfires at 6000rpm due to the MAF hitting 5.2V So far I’ve redone the entire interior with carpet form Car Mats Direct, new Seats and steering wheel from Autotechnica, also sound system by Autobarn (mainly Kicker) Also MCA pro comfort coil overs - Hands down best purchase yet, worlds of improvement over the tired 30yrold shocks Goals - 450kw/600hp on flex tune New paint job - Midnight Purple 2 Engine is at the shop getting rebuilt with forged rods a pistons, new valves and springs, ATI Harmonic balancer, Aeroflow 7.5L sump, rear head drain and oil restrictors as per oil control thread* and cam covers modded for larger breathers, other stuff I can’t recall of the top of my head Parts purchased and to be installed once the engine is done -  Engine loom from Wiring Specialties including these options: Haltech Nexus S3 R35 Coil pack conversion  PRP Dual Trigger kit Fan controller  Other Parts -  262 Kelford Cams Turbo - Hypergear ATR43SS3-ProS with T51R mod (whistly boi) 6 boost manifold (high mount) 50mm Turbosmart Pro gate (plumbed back for legal reasons) HKS Super Turbo Exhaust with High Flow Cat Custom 3.5inch dump and front pipe 1500cc Bosch injectors  Fuel Pump walbro 525 Haltech MAP and IAT sensors Haltech Flex Sensor Fenix Radiator with dual thermo fans LS1 Alternator Kit Oil Filter Relocation from EFI solutions and Cooling pro oil cooler Many other things sitting in my garage waiting for that engine to come back.

      Losses have to be less with DC coupling. Provided the battery inverter has decent MPP tracking ability - which really shouldn't be a problem. It's not 2005 any more.
