Hi guys,
Just about to buy a Corolla Twin Cam. That is 86-90 Ae86 FWD Corolla putting out 86kW. Just wondering if I need Regular (91 RON), Premium (96 RON) or Optimax (98 RON). I know the more the merrier, but the more the more bloody expensive!!

Just use Regular, the high grade stuff makes no differents to this car.

Umm, the AE86 is the RWD Corolla... Isn't the 86+ FWD Corolla the AE92(not sure)?

Probably. My bad. I mean the first of the two generations that came out with 4A-GE engines. First gen (one this concerns) had 86kW and second had 100kW.

the higher the c/r (this applies to n/a) the higher the octane gas..
otherwise, it's a waste of cash
