Two Uniteds that I know of -

Corner of Goodwood and Crossroad

And there's another up in blackwood.

The Liberty fuel appears to be an E10 fuel also.

So no doubt should offer the same advantages. I might check out the local liberty; if they have the E10 I might look at getting the car tuned on it. There isn't a United close enough. :P

Yeah i'm at Payneham and the closest United is on Prospect Rd which is about 10-15mins away. Imagine my frustation when i found out they were completely sold out of Boost 98 when i got there!

Premium Max wasn't cheap though, $1.33 p/L on a Mon evening, never seen Boost 98 go more then $1.30.

the liberty site is fairly unhelpful in trying to find out about the petrol they sell. they dont really have any information or links about the premium max stuff.

let us know how it goes.

I know, i reckon the website is right though. In which case the price wasn't very cheap at all. Not expecting any wonders, Boost 98 didn't do much economy wise.

hmm.

well according to the site both the unleaded 94 and premiumax 98 are E10.

I put some of the Shell Ferrari tested fuel (VMax?) and my R34 pinged its ring off the 1st time I booted it. Siphoned it out and went straight back to reliable Mobil 8000 or BP Ultimate

you cant always blame the fuel because your car pinged you have to try and factor in all the invariables

my car occasionally pings but I'm running 12.5-13 psi on a stock ECU

when it pings the weather is normally a bit warmer too

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
