webers4x48 Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Welcome to the club kasper. Nice find on your new car with that amount of k's. Is she a Twincam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Is she a Twincam? Probably not as its a sedan... but we can soon fix that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasper_flip Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) Nah, it's a 4-ac. Received it today, had a drive before. Bloody car dealer though... hands it over with the tank on empty. I filled it with premium after reading the owner's manual (recommended premium with 97 octane), however I am curious as to whether I should bother - surely running regular petrol can't be that bad for the engine. I am a uni student, and don't really want to be paying extra for petrol that makes no difference.

Ha HA I personally would ask "thenobbler" about that one, he runs a b/port 16v/20v Hybrid its about 11ish:1 comp and rumor has it that it used to run std 91ron unleaded. Good luck with your rolla Kasper "webers and the nobbler" love there Ae-82`s so they and a heap of others on hear have lots of info that will be usefull for you. Welcome and hope to see your minta 82 soon as there is a Drive-in thats being organised as i write this. stu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a uni student, and don't really want to be paying extra for petrol that makes no difference. You could probably get away with running normal unleaded on colder days, but I personally would use premium on warmer ones if you wanted to make the motor last. I found with my twinky that on the warmer months its better to run the 98, but when I first got it (Aug last year), it was no dramas on 95. I can't tell the difference in performance, but I get paranoid about detenation/pinging. I'm very fastidious about my car even though I do drive it. :P "Probably not as its a sedan... but we can soon fix that!"
