From memory, the highest compression ratio any of these engines came with was a 18R-G with 9.7:1 pistons. My friend has this same motor and it runs happily on regular unleaded fuel, 91 octane I think, (we don't get optimax in Tasmania). He also has a points distributor, old Solex carbs with standard size jets, and it runs well. (no real tuning was done)

My 2T-G with 8.8:1 pistons also ran fine on cheap unleaded. (Premium made no difference).

Alot of new cars in Australia have engines at toward 10:1 compression, and are tuned to run on cheap 91 unleaded.

Other good engines, such as 2ZZ-GE have higher 11.5:1 compression, but can still run on premium unleaded 97.

The 2T-G and 18R-G are not realy special in this regard. A engine is a engine.
