Pintaras were 4 cylinder (CA20E single cam from memory? Someone correct me if I'm wrong), Skylines were 6 cylinder (RB30E obviously). That was their big difference :laugh:

Kewl... ...Thanks for that... ...If that is the only difference then it isn't going to matter which one I get as I've got a different motor to go in...

And when it is debadged and cleaned up... ...I'm hoping there isn't any difference...

Lots of differences, but largely the above, plus the diff is different (smaller axles), trim levels are different, instruments are different...and so on.

Ahh... ...The diff and axles is good to know... ...If I go the Pintara route this might need to be swapped out for something stronger...

Trim and instruments are just cosmetic and most likely also going to be removed / replaced / turned into a new computer chair...

Maybe that was about a U12 Pintara??.... The R31 Pinni can be done easy enough i think

www.r31skylineclub.com

Search that for what ur looking for

Like Ash said... Start with a skyline, will be much cheaper for u in the long run rather than buying a pinni and putting skyline stuff in it.

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
