Hi,
The RG was the first model. It had the highest compression ratio, no anti-pollution gear and prefers to drink 98RON petrol.
I'd put 98RON (BP Ultimate) into any of these engines and forget running anything of lower RON rating. The 18RGUE is the preferred candidate for turboing.

yes well.... 79Rona is in tassie, and we can't get any 98RON fuel (yet). PULP is the best we can get. so i get around it by retarding the ignition timing a little (helps having fully programmable timing  ).
79rona: If you're lucky you'll find an rg in tassie, there's a few about. I sold an old green celica (RA40) to someone in hobart last year, that had an early 18rg in it. i checked the rego number the other day and it has expired, so maybe it been wrecked?
as for exhaust noise. I have 4-2-1 extractors and 2.25in pipe through a hotdog and a redback muffler, and its pretty loud especially and full noise near 6000-7000rpm.
What area of tassie are you at?
