:yeahthat:

 

I've run my N/A on normal unleaded for 4 years without any issues. The odd time I do treat it to Super, it does feel noticeably different - bit more power, better throttle response, but not worth the extra 10-15p/l or whatever it is currently, not for the amount of miles I do, anyway.

Im still using 4star in my TT, runs like a dream!

 

1) Sounds like a risky strategy. I don't know much about it, but the effects of lead inside a 2JZ engine must be relatively unknown, I would think.

2) I didn't know that 4 star was still available apart from from specialist suppliers.

I wouldn't put it in a TT. You don't want to be getting knock on these engines.

You may be right fellas, but I've also been running my TT on regular unleaded for 9 years. No engine problems after 100,000 miles... :)
