Hi guys.

I just wanted to list all the places that sell racing fuels around Sydney.

I've got prices from BP and Shell for their AVGAS based racing fuels which I'll post below.

All prices inclusive of GST

Shell Racing Fuel 100

MON= 100 RON= 108

Phone- 131618

20L = $39.31atm works out to $1.97/L

200L = $235.84 + $38 for drum = $273.84 works out to $1.37/L

BP 100

MON= 100 RON= 104

Phone- 4572 3113

20L = $48 works out to $2.4/L

200L (AVGAS) = $309 works out to 1.54/L

For all these fuels you will need CAMS license (looks at Dino:rolleyes: ) and a log book. Check with your council for storage permission.

Anyone else know where AVGAS can be bought please post it.

Cheers

Yep I know where you can get AVGAS George but there is a HUGE fine from the EPA for using it on the street. Apparently the fine is levied per cylinder and the guy I heard of got busted in a V-8 and was slugged with a $20 000 fine. :eek:

Hume Performance out Liverpool way sell VP racing fuel.

Bit pricey ($100 for 20L) but damn my engine ran alot cooler, idled so low, idled and revved out so smoothly.

As for extra grunt i dont think it made much difference. Needed to be running more boost or different tune to get the most out of the VP109 (i think thats what it was called)

Oh and still legal as it doesnt contain lead like avgas. I gets its better octane rating due to the fact that is oxygenated, and has a few other little additives in there.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
