likewise to find optimax...... only used optimax in the 2-3months ive had the skyline, but only optimax for the last 3yrs in my SP20, with regular service never had a single problem

Check which refinery sharing program runs in your state to find out what fuels you really buy. Most of the premiums come from the same refineries for all servos in some states.

I think it's a better idea to buy from servos with a higher turnover for 'fresher' fuel.

Does it make that much difference? Are Skylines that temperamental?

I often use BP Ultimate, but if I'm runnin' low Caltex/Shell - any of the big names with Premium.

im a BP man, but ill go to shell sometimes... i hate caltex though... but my car is a bit of a fuel ****... just cant get enough and goes to any random station..

Shell for me as it has the highest octaine rating at 98.4, but otherwise BP which is rated 98. These figures are accoring to the latest Fast fours and Rotaries Mag.

BP Ultimate for me, only had the car for umm 5weeks? its great...

Cheapest ive filled was $113/L a few weeks ago!

I use normal Shell on my other car the corolla...

[RedEmblem]

OT: You're on OCAU aren't you?

[d00dz]

OT?

me? yes i am

[yogi000]

a new caltex opened new me recently, so i thought i'd try the vortex 98......the knock meter didnt like it very much, its come down alot since going back to BP ultimate.

[dangerous_daveo]

BP is the best fuel. The other premiums wont be the same. Even if it comes out of an 'ultimate' truck, it wont be the same.

This topic has been done - do a search!

I use BP ultimate only for the ceifro. If I absolutely have to I'll use optimax.

In my daily and previous leaded car I only ever used optimax.

Stay away from the fake high octante (I think it's vortex or something that's not 98ron?)

[Cool Hand Luke]

Definately BP ultimate. Like most people use optimax as a 2nd choice. As someone mentioned you need to pick a servo that has higher usage that way the fuel isnt old. I found BP ultimate to be more consistant that optimax.

I dont think its a matter of skylines being tempremental, but and turbo car its fairly important. Most people here have some sort of mods, and running leaner and with more timing and boost than from factory it is more important.

BP as it smells better or should i say less. heaps better than coconut oil.

[MacGuyver]

I've been using BP Ultimate for about 3 years now, no problems! But according to a test done in Autosalon magazine about 2 months ago Shell Optimax had a slightly higher octane reading (98.6) compared with BP, Mobil and Caltex (98.5). They claimed that their tests were done by an independent laboratory.

"Oh no, it's the cops!"

"Worse, the police cops!"

BP Ultimate

I don't touch anything else
