yeah, I,m reading this and it says E95 is designed for diesel or high compression engines. I hadnt actually heard of it till now..I know the Honda runs pretty high comp but wow..

http://www.cleanairtrust.org/Differences-Between-E85-and-E95.html

Not on the list - but how about a Lexus IS200 or ES300.

IS200 - Good on fuel, cramp rear seats, great boot space, awesome handling, great ride, pretty slow if you don't rev it hard. Better in manual form if you want to extract the most power out of it, but the auto is pretty sweet for the daily grind.

ES300 - lots of space, decent power, has some "class" and many common parts with a Camry - good value IMO. Personally I'm not a fan of FWD cars - but you get lots of car for your money.

Nissan Maxima is also pretty good too, but styling is a little quirky - but is somewhat more elegant than a Camry.

Terry after reading pages of crap and trying to find e95 stockists in Victoria I have just realized u are talking about e95 which is 10% ethanol at 95 octane rating .

In otherwords E10 !!!!

which we have already been using for months..

you just wasted more than 2 minutes of my life ya old prick :down:

my sister drives a yaris, quite like the yaris to, cheap car to buy, very cheap car to run, has a bit of get up and go when you need it.

but i would say for a small family, it would be best to get the sedan instead of the hatch which my sister has (please note, my sister has 3 kids and can fit them in this small car no problems)

i also would go the yaris as i used to drive one many moons ago delivering pizzas.

the other option would be the i30, just like the yaris in many ways, just lower to the ground.

but hey that's my opinion if you want a good cheap reliable car that wont set you broke and can easily take what you need it for, but hey, i'm used to small cars as all my cars till now have been pulsars

Mazda 6 handles better but Accord Euro has a nicer gearbox and better engine.

If you can cop the sadness of owning an Aurion then these are the best value car 4 years old. You get one from the auction houses for the price of a night at the movies and it'll even have leather.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
