wouldnt of thought NA RB would have enough power to utilise the RON

i didnt wanna say it.

LOL that's what i would have thought?

What static compression do they run?

9:1 afaik.

just for comparison, my old toyota ran a cr of 10.5:1 and didnt have any problems on any premium fuel. cant see how the lower compression nissan engine would suffer problems.

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

my car lost power with the v-power fuel, she hated it ran like crap and detonated off her nut :laugh:

I'd be taking her to the mechanic in that case, could be many other things like spark, coil packs, afm ect ect....

Mine runs just fine on V Power, I wouldn't say it runs better (than Ultimate 98) but I definitely get better fuel consumption on V Power. But I'll use either, depends where and when I fill up... :nyaanyaa:

Well the issue is resolved. Found some octane booster in my shed, put it in this morning and she runs fine now. f**king shit fuel. :nyaanyaa:

Edit: I should add, it doesn't matter if the engine is forced or na, shit fuel is still shit fuel. Don't you think NA cars suffer detonation too?

I've got a new name for V Power: Vagina Power = its a c*nt of a fuel :laugh:

What servo did you get the V-Power from Ruby? Was it a servo that is very busy? 98 ron fuel (no matter who makes it) will lose octane as it sits. So if it had sat in their tanks for 3-4 weeks because no one had bought it, then it would probably have been down around 95 RON.

The trick is ALWAYS buy your fuel (BP, Shell, Mobil) from a very busy servo. Tanks get drained quick, which always means nice fresh 98 ron fuel.

The same applies if you put you dont drive your car for a while. If it sits for a month or two, ALWAYS add fresh fuel, or at least octane booster before heading off again :nyaanyaa:

Supporting the above, I've use both V-Power and BP Ultimate in all my cars, and each fuel is the same as each other - never a bad batch because I always visit busy servo's on main roads :laugh:

I think I just encountered a bad batch. Still wasn't happy about it.

I always (99.9%) buy my fuel from BP near Greyhounds and BP West Tce, or Shell West Tce

Not sure if I should name the servo ... but its located near the brewery :nyaanyaa:

See now that is a pretty shitty small servo - it wouldn't surprise me if the don't sell much 98 there at all and you got some old horrible fuel.

(probably sell plenty of 91 with the 4c dockets for all the dero's heading home to the western suburbs :nyaanyaa:)

Just a quick question...how do i get the static compression ratio of my car???? std rb30 but with a set of hypatec dished pistons??

a compression tester ? if its a built engine, or you can calculate compression based upon measurements,bore,cc of cyl head etc if the motor isnt built yet

      R34 GT-R Positive Battery Cable Routing

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.

      R34 squeaking sound from passenger front area

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.

      Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
