Just wondered if anyone out there has tried running strait LPG on their RB25DET?

Little Johnny 10% is subsidising anyone that changes over. $2000 aparently.

I can think of a few benifits:

No emmision restrictions

$2000

cheaper fuel

LPG being cold will lower the temp of air going in

From memory i think LPG has a good octane rating aswell?????

I'm probably just dreaming but if anyone has done it, even looked into it i'd be interested to hear how it went.

Thanks

Aaron

Thanks for the links paulr33, just reading through them now.

Would be a good time to do a conversion, if it's viable, with the short bald bast.......... guy chipping in.

Oh, and by viable i mean won't sacrafice power :happy:

LPG has a higher octane then fuel (about 106ron from memory). from what i know about it, and talking to my mechanic, on a turbo car you can actually gain power (if you tune it right) over normal fuel. the problem is keeping it in tune. it is more affected by temp and altitude changes.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
