Unless you guys missed I was being sarcastic about toluene doing things to your neigbours dog etc..

Anyone telling you that it rots fuel lines is misinformed at best and at worst an 'idiot' (one who is politically ignorant from ancient greek language).

Plenty of myths about on this stuff touted by people who know nothing about the use and who most definately have never used the stuff.

Every time I see a comparison between toluene and bottle based octane boosters it makes me laugh, they are so full of crap.

ok, today i fill up using Shell Fuel and Octance Booster, the Octance booster says its boost up octance by 70points, which is like 7ron correct? so i should be running just around 100ron

im going to way a few days let the fuel get into the system and see how its goes.

70 points??? I think the printers must have farked up.  Most octane boosters only claim 3 to 4 points, which is barely noticeable anyway, if at all.

Thats what i through must be a mistake, but i check most of the bottles and they all say 7ron (70 points); i would have never pick but it was on specail so it was cheaper than normal (i think its something like $20-$30 for a bottle normaly)

I dont really think i will get +7ron but if i get atlest +2 or +3 i will be happy

p.s i dont know if u remember be steve but i was at the drift prac dude in grey r33, i talk to you abit and u gave me some good tips. Im michael aka mikey :D

Yeah mikey look at the bottle again, I think it might say 7 points not 7 RON. What did you actually buy? I have tried stuff from supercheap when I dragged my Pintara down the Motorplex for fun, got 18 sec! Heheh.

ahaha i just check again for you guys Boosts octance to 7 numbers RON (70 points)

its called pro strength octance booster

whats the fuel/booster mix needed to get the 7 extra RON points?

1bottle per litre? :P

FYI, if your super desperate to put 98 RON fuel in your car the tiger kart club (the one next to the ole MC) has Optimax for 33$ per 20L drum. They use it for their karts in certain classes.

says 500Ml for 60L, but i did 500mL for 40L ahahaa

$33 / 20 L ??? OMG. Izzin't that 82.50 for a full tank of 50 lits ??? SHEESH!

I paid $78 to fill up once, that was when it was $1.47 a litre for 98. :P

Have to put Shell premium in mine tomorrow, got under a quarter of oh so good 98 left......... :D

p.s i dont know if u remember be steve

Yep, certainly do remeber you :) nice car and some nice driving too.

Serioulsly guys, tolulene is your friend, your car will love you for using it :O And if your thinking of paying lots for fuel, I can also recommend elf LMS, 102 RON and at $5.50 per litre, it is awesome stuff if you have the money.

Oh, and I found some cheap tolulene at Westfuels, $66 for 20L :)

Update on Premium Fuel Availability

BP has advised that their refinery is now back up and running. They will be supplying premium unleaded petrol and 98 Ron (marketed at BP sites as 'Ultimate') to retail sites as of today. It may take a few days for all sites to be fully stocked, so to be sure fuel is available, you should contact the site first.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
