well... ive been driving my SS-III (which i assume has the 3S-GE engine) for over a year and a half now, and only recently did i realise that the petrol cap says "ONLY HI-OCTANE FUEL"... and ive been using regular the entire time...
is that like... really bad? is it worth changing to hi-oc from now on? (ps. when i first got the car my japanese wasnt so good, so it took me a while to actually be able to read that warning  so im only half a retard...)

Your cheap stuff is the regular stuff in Japan. what you call cheap is actually high octane. If your going any higher than that, than you must be driving a Jet to work!
