I am sure most of you have noticed alot of the eastern states skyline owners have had great results with E85 fuel. Increased power and more importantly for me little to no detonation.

I have searched and cannot seam to find any suppliers here in WA. Does anyone know what the situation is with this? Is it here, where is it or when will it be available?

Cheers

But detonation makes me sad and the tuner has to take timing out and thats less power for hooning the streets of perth :D

*goes on shooting spree*

(i wonder if cops will come knock on my door for posting that :cool:)

Quick get in first and fire bomb you local Police station. (just jokes big brother)

anyways yeah i'm interested in going E85 too but doubt it will be here anytime soon. Might have to get the moonshine still back out and start making my own.

Toluene is your friend.

DIY race fuel. You ideally need to retune for it. If you want to have a little try then you can get 4L toluene from some hardware stores, else you can get it from the likes of BP in 20 , 40 and 200L quantities. You are buying it as a 'cleaning' solvent for specialised engine parts NOT as a fuel. You can't say the word 'fuel' at any time.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
