Premium Mandatory?
 

Hey yeah so I was at the gas station today and opened my gas door, and inside it said premium unleaded only (93) sooo I was wondering do you have to fill the Z with premium or will mid-grade be good enough? Will it effect engine performance if you go with mid-grade?

91 or better only

O alright so even 89 would be a no no? I mean gas isnt cheap where i live so every couple cents count know wat i mean.

It won't hurt but it won't run optimal either :ugh2:

Ic. 91 or better it is then. thanks :tiphat:

This is why everyone should read there entire owners manual cover to cover. This is a expensive sophisticated peice of Japanese brilliance and you should be very fimialr with her.

The cheaper gas won't save you money.
I had a Celica GTS that required premium and I decided to run the lower grade gas. I didn't go to regular, just mid-grade. The mileage dropped so much, not to mention the increased pre-detonation, that I ended up spending more money on the lower grade.
Use 91 or above or you'll regret it.

will do :tiphat:

How much are you filling up per gallon in Middletown? In Torrington it's 3.99 and in Stamford it's 4.39. Crazy how much gas costs and changes price from town to town in ct.

Yeah for premium im almost at 4.15 a gallon. Some places like near cromwell I have seen 4.45. :shakes head:

When I have to go in to ny westchester county, it's 4.60 :(

Wow that sucks, it really amazes me that even gas stations down the road from each other have major diff in prices, but o well watever my baby needs to drink even if it is expensive. N u live in torrington huh? Know of any other ppl with Z's round CT? I just sent my online appilcation to join the CT Z club! :tup: its the only actual Z club I found around me.

Yup good call joining the ctzcc! They have monthly meetings in rotating locations. They are a great club, real z guys and girls.

R u in it??

Yes I am but only recently. I have yet to attend a meeting. I did meet the presendent of the club and see his 350Z.
