by CSR, are we talking about what is available at United outlets?

CSR (Sucrogen) E85 is NOT available at any pump in Australia. Sucrogen E85 is the true "Greenstuff" V8 Supercar fuel and is green in colour with 108 octane rating. No other E85 has a higher octane rating and all other brands of E85 that is available at various pumps does not have the high octane rating - other E85 fuel is not green in colour either (this is how you distinguish the true Sucrogen E85).

Sucrogen E85 also contains the corrosion inhibitor additive DC1-11, which means that the fuel will not corrode any motor parts! This E85 is only available in South-East Qld through Mercury Motorsport or through another mob in Toowoomba (not sure of the place's name though). V8 Supercar teams such as Dick Johnson racing do stock the fuel, however do not sell it to the public...

It is also available from marinelli motorsports in ipswich. But at 2/3 bucks a litre yall can shove it where the sun dont shine.

The stuff that will be available from the pumps will service all but the most hardcore needs as already experienced by those fortunate enough to have access to it in sydney and melbourne.

then my post still stands then (to an extent) the E85 that CSR supplies to United isn't as high a rating as Manildra's.

but i was not aware of ANOTHER csr E85 though - interesting - is it cut with 98 or 91?

My information came directly from John Thompson, owner of Fuel Control in Melbourne, who actually mixes the Sucrogen E85 and distributes it. He didn't mention another distributor located in Ipswich, just the Toowoomba one :down:

Funnily enough trent thats what marinelli's say too. :down:

Really?? Well, that's interesting!!! Next time I speak to John I'll query him on it... Ours is $2.50 per litre...

OK, Marinelli's DO NOT SELL Sucrogen E85.

Go to Fuel Control's website www.fuelcontrol.com.au this will tell you all the info you need about the true E85...

:P

Interesting, I'll actually go back to marinelli's next week and see what they have to say. :)

CSR ain't that high. Manildra is higher, but it's only 106-107

Manildra is higher Octane, MATE YOU SPEAK CRAP ! The Manildra product is NEVER THE SAME OCTANE OR RON.

Also other sellers mix small poor quality batches of so called Race E85.

ONLY SUCROGEN/CSR PREMIUM E85 HAS A 108 OCTANE - How do I now this ? I blend and make the fuel.

FACT - NO OTHER E85 COMES CLOSE TO THE PERFORMANCE OR PROTECTION OF SUCROGEN E85.

SUCROGEN E85 108 Octane is the only tested and race proven E85 in the Australian market place.

Lets clear up one major point - E85 PUMP FUEL WILL NEVER BE HIGHER THAN 99 Octane, IT WILL NEVER GIVE THE SAME PERFORMANCE AS A 108 OCTANE E85 SUCH AS SUCROGEN.

FUEL CONTROL HAS DISTRIBUTORS IN EACH STATE - MERCURY MOTORSPORT, HP HEAVEN, HERROD MOTORSPORT, RED R RACING, BRINKS PERFORMANCE, RPW PERTH.

These guys build the best performance vehicles in Australia, so it makes sense they use the best, TARGA TASMANIA will ONLY USE SUCROGEN E85 AS A CONTROL FUEL.

So what I am I trying to say, SUCROGEN E85 / 108 OCTANE IS THE BEST. IS THE ONLY E85 THAT WILL GIVE YOU WHAT YOU NEED,

Manildra is higher Octane, MATE YOU SPEAK CRAP ! The Manildra product is NEVER THE SAME OCTANE OR RON.

Also other sellers mix small poor quality batches of so called Race E85.

Fire up! :)

Fuel talk aside.. How does the GTR feel to drive on the streets - only if you do of course :)

Sounds fantastic, my dad even loved the dyno clip. I would love to know how drivable a 1000whp GTR is! Major driveline mods??

They make E85 - IT HAS NO CORROSION INHIBITORS AND IS MADE FROM A VERY LOW QUALITY ETHANOL.

You will never get the same Octane result so that stuffs your tuning. Been there done that.

You better race down to sydney and melbourne and tell all those guys that are using that really low quality shit that all their horsepower gains are just fairy stories.

No one is saying your fuel isnt better quality but who the hell is going to pay 2buckfiddy a litre to fuel their daily.

given that it returns about 30% poorer fuel economy makes it an even worse proposition.

Your fuel has a place, no doubt about it but dont shit can the other guys product when it has proven results on the board.

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
