if a major provider offered a higher octane at at least most of it's servo's i'd get my gtr tuned for it now. only reason i never got it tuned for the 100 octane stuff shell was selling is because only a few servo's did it. nearest one to me being a 20minute drive

I would just stick to 98.

I believe the cars which are imported from Japan get a tune to our AUS fuel...

That 100 Octane did not make much of a difference in some cars unless it was tuned for it.

Hi all,

I have a 33 s1 and i only use 98 octane

95 is dirt for any jap car (pings+++) and from what i gathered from using ethonol blended fuels...........well..................i stalled when i was going around a corner, lost power stearing and it was very interesting from then onwards!!

I have been using BP fuel only and it has worked a treat so far. I think with fuel its simple...............what you pay for is what you get, its that simple.

Regards, Evan

tune is dependant on your tuner :P

other than that i just need datalogit now :P

I'm seriosuly looking at it now. I'm just a tad worried about my fuel system. 800 CC injectors and a Nismo intank pump enough to supply 400 + KW at the treads on E85?

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
