I am sure most of you have noticed alot of the eastern states skyline owners have had great results with E85 fuel. Increased power and more importantly for me little to no detonation.

I have searched and cannot seam to find any suppliers here in WA. Does anyone know what the situation is with this? Is it here, where is it or when will it be available?

Cheers

But detonation makes me sad and the tuner has to take timing out and thats less power for hooning the streets of perth :D

*goes on shooting spree*

(i wonder if cops will come knock on my door for posting that :cool:)

Quick get in first and fire bomb you local Police station. (just jokes big brother)

anyways yeah i'm interested in going E85 too but doubt it will be here anytime soon. Might have to get the moonshine still back out and start making my own.

Toluene is your friend.

DIY race fuel. You ideally need to retune for it. If you want to have a little try then you can get 4L toluene from some hardware stores, else you can get it from the likes of BP in 20 , 40 and 200L quantities. You are buying it as a 'cleaning' solvent for specialised engine parts NOT as a fuel. You can't say the word 'fuel' at any time.

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
