"Premium100 is a high performance petrol with an octane of 100, which is the highest rating available in the Australian market. Ethanol is a natural octane enhancer - adding 10% ethanol to petrol boosts its octane number and its performance. Ethanol helps the other components in petrol burn more completely. It also has a cleaning effect on the cars fuel system. Premium100 will give your car more zip! "

reading from that it should b better then BP ultimate. i might have to give it a try... i fill up tuesdays so might use it 2moro. any1 tried it?

Just be careful with ethanol blend fuels! I put some 98/10% ethanol in mine and the knock reading skyrocketed. Was tuned on Ultimate 98, tuner said that any ethanol blend fuel is trouble unless you retune for it. Due to the amount of extra fuel needed and less timing because of higher burn rate. My knock went from 30 on ultimate to over 200 on ethanol blend!

Oh and Damo, go for the chrome/orange globes. Last thing you want is nice clear side markers with daggy orange globes.

I am speaking to Luke_ENR about it, which seems to be clearing it up a bit for me.

I get the 040 in the cradle, but it doesn't go back into the tank. I now have a theory that the end/base of the 040, needs to be in the same position as the OEM pump. I was mounting the 040 a little bit further down, where the "C" bit of the cradle is, was where is was putting the line on the 040. the "C" bit, holds the OEM to the cradle as it has the pickup go through it.

pritty sure there is a guide on the site??

also i thought that the 040 is not a direct fit replacment?? but maybe thats just for gtr's

It isnt, you need to modify the cradle...but i think i know what to do now. I did look at the guide, it helped me a bit.

    • 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.
    • Thanks mate, yeah I've heard that alot and i am definitely regretting using the 25 Loom now, i have gone through and traced all the plugs from the 20loom and re wired them into the 25 loom, I have currently got Crank, Fuel and accessory's working, just need to finalise the loom and run the wire for the Ignition (Spark) and it should be running, will update if i have any luck.
    • Cheers lad, when I head over there I'll give it a shot.
    • 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.
