Topaz Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I filled up my brothers 3rd car this morning. His first car is a GTiR which is a piece of shit, thrashed and dirty, second car is a 1995 Magna with a buggered engine that we recently sold, third car is a 1998 Camry that my PARENTS bought for him to 'ruin' as well. I am driving the Camry coz my car is at Hyperdrive for the weekend. Paid $1.27 per litre for Unleaded Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/120328-fuel/page/12/#findComment-3018689 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza750 Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 after speaking to a few people at a few Caltex's i have found out they are getting their 98 octane through Mobil (same as peak) as caltex and mobil are owned by the same parent corporation so their fuel isn't a true 98 octane as it contains toulene to boost it to that level and it deteriorates over time so ya fill ya car up with 98 octane by the end of the tank its down to 95 /96 octane Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/120328-fuel/page/12/#findComment-3019192 Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT Doctor Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 (edited) Woohoo! I just filled up today 68 litres 632KM's and a nice Japanese lady on the nav system said I need to fill up. The needle wasn't on empty but the fuel light was on. I figured at that rate and with a 76 litre tank I could have gone to 706 k's before running dry. Beats the crap out of my 4WD. Want to run through a few tanks before doing any mods and check the consumption at each stage.

WRRR Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Well the GTR is not too bad after all. Between 12 and 13 l/100km (BP Ultimate) mixed open road and fanging for the last 3 tank fulls. Gives a theoretical range of about 550km. Thats with over 350rwhp available to play with (and more to come).

Topaz Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 My Escort gulps $40 of ULP a week, my current tank might see an eight day . Nice change from the $70 my GTR was costing me and that was before this little price hike.

HypeR33 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 a tank of petrol now lasts me maybe 1 to 2 months hahaha instead of the few days it used to last me.

Onthehunt Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 when i got the car i was getting about 280-300km per tank although the right foot was abit heavy. got powerfc tuned a few weeks back and with same sort of driving as when got the car getting about 450km per tank so im happy. the powerfc will pay for itself one day:). does everyone tend to fill up when fuel light comes on or really drain it right down most of the time?

When the red light comes on the nice Japanese girl hiding in my dash says what must be "time to fill up sir, please look for a petrol station that sells BP Ultimate", could probably go another 50kms or more before running out but might not be able to get 98 RON.
