Ok, stop talking about the CES here. we're talkin about the 100 RON here man.

start a new thread or go dig up any of those threads that evolved into CES sucks or CES rocks debates.  :angry:

And if u don't stop. I"ll have to release a Povo/Chrome Racing Exhaust and sell it for 1 percent of the price of the CES ones!

Deep breathes bro!!! :o

Where can i get this 100 oct stuff?

Its ok, CORZZA , I'm not really :angry: . Its just an in joke. (do a search on power FC) .

See, I make performance mods at work when i have time and give them away to fellow forum members to test. For those that make it into full production, they're dirt cheap anyway. Unfortunately my CES prototype (read: copy) has been so wildly successful (why just the other day I flew past a R34 and it was like he wasn't even moving :lol: ) that I fear the brissy boys with CES systems will drive down to melb. to shut my lil operation down.

Thus I have enlisted bigbum with his nunchucks to protect me in vic and runx to patrol the border of nsw and qld...

Anyway, here's a link to my latest freebie. Welcome to the forum.

P.s. 100 RON has given me 330 km on 3/4 of a tank... so far my best fuel economy eve (what can i say, my car's auto and lives on red line. it drinks!)

Back on topic...

I was a bit concerned about using a RON that is too high...Toyota's official response gained from a dealer as well as Customer Service.

"Where the vehicles User Guide states that the 2ZZ requires a 95RON or higher, this is the absolute lowest rating you can use. You can use as high RON as you like as long as it is commercially available"

I guess this means when AV-Gas is available on Pump at the 7-11 servo, then wooshka.... :P

well i finally fuelled up Optimax Extreme this morning at Shell Fairfield (NSW). i put 56.19L in and before this last 3 tanks were Optimax at Shell Wetherill Park. it cost 13 cents more and Unleaded and just 3 cents over Optimax. well initial thought of this fuel is not too much special. hit lift a few times after more than 30min drive and doesn't feel too much different from Optimax. dont feel my money well spent on it but let see what happen during the week.

have been using ethanol blended fuel for a good 3-4 month period and will not turn back the car runs so smoothly and performance has increased torque, idelling noise (decresed) and generall smoothness of the car has worked wonders, occasionally i run a upper cylinder head cleaner which further improves flow of power...

10 our of 10 for ethanol.... - drink it up

Wait until you have used the a tank or so then when the air is cool, and your sitting about 1/4 full..... mmmm... you'll feel the difference :P

Too right Greggles... I have found that the silly ticking noise that some of hear from our idling engines has decreased also...

Read from the start of the thread....

we dont have ethanol blend here in perth but i was wondering if its 10% eth based, can u make up a mixture of BP98 octane with 10% ethanol that would give u 100 RON(ish) right?

No because Ethanol is not an octane booster

Hi all, I'm new here...

I've just been reading all this info on the 100RON. As of it, I haven't tried it out yet. But my question is..how did some of you guys get over 550km/tank....

And i've also been wondering..how many km will a corolla go after the fuel indicator light has gone on

how many km it will go will depend on each car of course. but the fuel light will come on every car when there is approx 15L left in the tank.

the record i've ever heard was 650-700 in a tank. poor sod never revved it past 3000rpm just so he could win a bet or something with the wife.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
