  1. E10 is shit. Except Mobil, they're 94RON .
  2. In the 10 years of driving I've done, I filled up twice out of necessity with Caltex. Once back when E10 was being pushed, caused my R31 to stall when cold and ran like shit (yes, E10), obviously burned through the fuel. Switched to Mobil (regular 91), no issues. Floated between Mobil and Shell, got extra 50km from a tank of 50L from Mobil lol (highway driving SW Sydney to Kiama and back). Even tried Mobil E10, same performance as regular but slightly less mileage. Seat of pants (no knock sensor readings or anything), my cars always liked Mobil fuels. BP is fine but usually more expensive, so don't bother. Plus Mobil is closest to where I lived (and live), and either on par or cheaper than Caltex. Win win. Brother's experience: Holden Cruze 1.4 turbo 6spd auto, Caltex E10 to Mobil E10, Mobil got extra 20-30km from his normal driving and 'ran better'. Same shit on 2014 Corolla 1.8L 4spd auto. I've also advised a handful of non-car friends to switch away from Caltex, but they were too random with filling up 'whatever unleaded fuel' they could find. I did have one comment that switching away from Woolworths led to small but noticeable increase in performance but mileage was the same. But who cares about real world experiences right? Mobil fuel comes from the same place as the other brands, out of the ground. What's your point? They use the same depot? They're all the same fuel?
  3. Really depends on your area. Non-glare, stock coloured lights should be fine. Hell I've retrofitted HIDs in my R32 and the Police never even looked at it (nor the rest of my car, keep it reasonably standard and don't be a tool).
  4. And that's why you don't fill up Caltex. #Mobil4life
  5. Good time to learn Unless you need your car on the road yesterday. Just remember not to use stupid coloured bulbs, otherwise prepare for high chance of getting defected.
  6. It was a generalised statement of the trend these days. Posters (on forums and Facebook), regardless of age, seem to have become quite lazy over the years. SAU is a good example of this. Lots of new threads with easily answerable questions if searched beforehand. The time it took for them to sign up (no problems with that) and create a new thread, they could have Googled/Binged/Duckduckgoed the answer(s). BTW I didn't read the 'heated exchanges', I just thought "fight fight fight" .
  7. Bend your own clip, somehow. Throw the adaptor out and put 4300K D2S HID kit in.
  8. They will stick outside the guards. I think these had 285 wide tyres? Would need to pump guards and run more negative camber than standard.
  9. To add: - remove carpets - mounted fire extinguisher
  10. More Indians not being a tight arse and joining, good to see
  11. Tonnes easier to just pull out your phone and create a thread on a forum though. Instead of using said phone to, y'know, search.
  12. ^ Drop a 4AGE small port in that.
  13. Such JDM, much shiny, wow. Reckon you should paint the front lip white Terry?
  14. Tried wreckers? After anything in particular?
  15. Can't recommend any personnel as you haven't specified what you're looking for in a person. For tyres, did you read this thread? If you're happy with what you ran previously, go with that. Otherwise, read through the last few (tens of) pages. Also read this http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/434880-momo-outrun-m3-tyres-has-anyone-tried-these/
  16. inb4 first post spoon feeding... oh wait.
  17. Load ratings: 97Y; 730kg. Bit dirty from laying around doing nothing:
  18. Same here, miss my stock Type-M with sunroof My dad wrote it off, 'forcing' me to upgrade to the 32R .
  19. I'll come down. I might even give the car a wash. Ravi (gunmetal R32 GT-R)
