If your all so worried about fuel prices check out

www.fuelwatch.wa.gov.au (perth peeps only).

U can check out the price graphs and search for the cheapest metro on any fuel.

By the way i paid $1.359 for ultimate yesterday in wanneroo on the way to drift battle and only got 335km a tank.

This is total BS!

$3 a liter? so what happens when the country just shuts down because normal working class people can no longer afford petrol? are we all going to ride f*cking push bikes to work?

how is it that in less then 3 years petrol has crept up from .70c a liter to $1.50 per liter?

doesnt south australia have enough oil under to make our own petrol to service australia for the next x hundred years but because we are a part of opec we cant use it.

also, is like .50c of that $1.50 pure tax? I wonder how long it will be before there is a total revolt in this country.....

You can also blame the governments for taking so much tax out .. when they levy nearly 50% in taxes..As you can see below:

QLD seems to be 10-15c/L cheaper than NSW and VIC, and has an extra rebate to reduce the prices. Go lobby your state governments to do the same.

70c?! last time it was 70c/L was about 10 years ago.

I heard the other day on the news it was going to be $3/litre sad.gif

bahaha.. you believe what you see on the news .. bahahahaha

and more bahahaha.. Look they are always doomsaying and things as whoever says it gets attention. We'll see. They were saying things such as this during Gulf War I. 10 years on its gone up but not *that* much.

i used to complain when premuim petrol cost 90+cents when i got my first turbo charged car, that was usually on a saturday or friday nite ... it was usually in the high 80's i think for premuim, so 80 odd cents for normal petrol, this was about 5 years ago

and me, well im on gas, but thats going to go up too, boo

thinken about either buying a motie bike

or just a pushbike

      gauge needle removal

      Google says for a 1998 Nissan Maxima to pull/pry, and the metal pin might even come out with it. I'd do a bit more googling, there was a few videos, find some where the shafts/needles appear most similar and compare the techniques.

      FS - RB30 Turbo upgrade bolton turbo kit - 600kw

      By Predator1 · Posted

      Details: Turbo Borg Warner EFR 9180 with 1.05 rear housing Upgraded TurboSmart integrated BOV Sanded and powdercoated compressor cover in gloss black Elbow welded with wiggins clamp Speed Sensor(Not included) (Can include oil drain(heat wrapped + titanium intake pipe with almost new filter for a tad extra). Manifold: 6 Boost RB26/30 twin scroll manifold  e-MAP ports drilled into both scrolls(I was using the TAARKS EMAP KIT) Turbo is in excellent condition. Always used Penrite 15w50 Racing oil(Changed less then 2000ks). Also using the Turbosmart OP regulator and filter. Downpipe: 4inch Stainless steel with VBand inlet and outlet clamps(included) Heat wrapped Dual ports for Dyno/Wideband usage Will throw in free 2.5 inch intercooler pipe(2.5inch From turbo outlet to 3.5 inch intercooler) - Powder coated black. Turbo made 563rwkw on mainline hub dyno at around 24-25psi boost - Pump fuel. Will def make over 600kw on e85. Didn't bother as my e-MAP was through the roof with my setup sitting past the choke line. I have a cnc ported and fully built head on my 3.2. Turbine speed saw max of around 109k rpm. I'm running this on my R32 GTR, with AC, and the original power steering pump. The manifold clears the AC lines, ABS, and everything else. Although I had new AC lines because I just wanted new ones and I heat wrapped them as well. This will make more power on a slightly lower capacity motor with a higher PR. And I have since upgraded to a G45-1500. Have pics and videos if need be.  Absolutely nothing wrong with setup. Turbo is in perfect condition. No shaft play or oil leaks at all. All the work was professionally done. The transient response of this is fkn amazing. I cannot rave more about this turbo. If I wasn't chasing 4 figures, I would have kept it. $5000 NZ. Located: Auckland, New Zealand.
