Fuel In Sa

[shubby0901]

Hey guys,

I know there are threads about this but I havnt been able to find any relatively new ones.

I have a R33 GTST which is stock. What fuel do you guys use? Most Unleaded fuel above 91 is 5% ethanol or 10% ethanol...apparently this isnt good for the car.

Thoughts?

Filled up Shell V-power...will see what it feels like and the fuel economy

....who told you that information? When on Unleaded was on 98 or if couldn't get 98 was on 95. Am now on E85 but that's a different story.

Regarding economy - that all depends on your right foot and style of driving.

It says it on the pump, talks about the benefits of ethanol blend. I believe Shell's 95 doesn't have ethanol, not 100% sure but I know the liberty's do which is unfortunate as they're usually the cheapest.

You are wrong.

Premium fuel typically has no ethanol, with the exception of United (which brings the octane up to 100)

Drove to the liberty close to my house just for this...

Im not really trying to start fights. Just wanna know what people use and found works well with their skylines being a new skyline owner...

You should be running 98 minimum. The 100 octane ethanol blends are fine and in most cases better. You will pick up quite a bit of midrange response.

Oh right yeah I wanted to see what experiences people have had with the blended fuels.

Agree with Race__24. Always ran BP98 on mine and minimum 95 if couldn't find 98.
