Hello and welcome. Does the owners manual not specify what type of gas? I'd assume premium

Not to sound mean, but unless you're more talented than me in linguistics, reading a Japanese owners manual is a challenge. Plus, the rest of the world uses RON fuel octane ratings. Regular gas is 89+ RON, high octane is 96+ RON.

Per tip form ClubLexus (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...on-vs-aki.html) multiply the RON number by 0.95 to obtain the regular US-spec octane rating.

93 Octane or more is what most turbo rotary guys use.
