You have an R33.. Yes it is a series.. it has to be.. Also did you seriously buy a car without knowing anything about it? Cause i've got some nigerian dollars for you.. Can we make a deal?

[baby34]

If you mean what car you have?

Its an Skyline R33 GTS Series 2..

With Nismo Bodykit.

And as for a turbo.. Your best off selling your current car and buying a turbo 33...

[mad082]

LOL...

Also another dumb question

At the moment im putting 95 unleaded in it, can it take 91?

Just curious as it costs abit to fill up

[mad082]

it's natro? then yes you could, but you are better off using 95. just use e10 if you want to save money. just make sure it is a 94 or 95 octane e10.

[pharlap]

im newzealand bro so dont have 94 or e10?

[baby34]

99% of skyline owners use 98 Octane, however since urs is N/A. You can use 91.. or 95.... I did it in my skyline n/a and it was fine.. 98 is usually only for Forced inducted skylines

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

don't forget that 95/98 will give you better milage though.. so just check offset of cost vs l/km.. also higher octane is cleaner..

doesn't always give you better economy, at least not in my experience. over the past few months i have tried 3 different fuels (for a few weeks per brand to get a good idea of the economy, not just a 1 off). i've been using caltex 98, bp ultimate and united e10. i have found them all to be within a few % of each other. most times economy is within 0.5L/100km of each other no matter what type it is for similar types of driving. i get just as much variance between individual tanks of fuel of the 1 type as i did when i changed brands. for the extra cost of the 98 over the e10, it certainly didn't give enough of an economy increase to balance out.

i should note that this was tested in the missus SSS pulsar.

Wind like 30 degree ignition timing into it and then run 98

to add to that it also depends on the servo, mojority of the co branded servos i've been to (woolies and coles) i put 98 in and have to retard my timing to stop it poping after 3000rpm so my guess is its 91/e10 some BP are the same, but non woolies caltex 98 never gave me an issue but the bp near my work gives me the better distance per tank
