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 !!!!

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.

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
