Just saw petrol for $1.70 this is an out of control

the petrol stations have to tell the regulatory bodies the day before what there price will be at 2pm the next day

So always fill up tuesday or before 2pm wednesday

its getting ridiculous but everyone is still paying it no one wants an electric car yet!

my 2c

yeah...there was an attack on a off shore refinery in Nigeria yesterday

Shell shut down production of it, so Nigeria has lost 10% of its oil production...

im guessing Nigeria's oil production makes up a small percentage of world oil production, so why does this isolated incident have world wide consequences???

any excuse to raise prices is used....bs

blah!!! :(

This is getting ridiculous seriously, they find any lil reason to bump the price of fuel up its so over priced at the moment, i heard a segment on TV saying fuel is really worth 80c per litre, but the mark up is 100%.. is everyone whos in power blind ?

and they say inflation is gonna kill us, thats if petrol prices dont starve us to death.

im seriously considering getting a aprilia 125 just for a lil cruiser.

I just full tanked. 138 bucks. like . WTF !

Hmmm, Dunno if there's anything to it...

but I notice at a few servos when you want to make the payment an even amount say $20/$30/$40etc

the pump will got to X0.01c no matter how lightly you touch the pump nozzle,

I even purposely stopped at 29.99 and only SLIGHTLY touched the nozzle, went straight to $30.01

conspiracy theory or another way we're gettin stooged? :)

Either way don't faze me, perks of a company fuel card :)

Rounding mate.... its the work of geniuses

If you pay cash you can have 2c of free fuel! just fill to $30.02 and give them 30 bucks....

amazing isnt it

fill to $30.03 and your f**ked may as well fill to $30.07 and cough up that 5 cents!

Although pay on card and your mc f**ked

well yeah I realise that,

majority of people would pay on credit or EFTPOS though,

my point is why it's seems so difficult to make it an even amount at the pump, it'll instantly jump that extra cent

just pisses me off because I have a company fuel card so I'm getting ripped off that 0.01c when I fill up...

but like I said it's neither here nor there because I'm lucky in that they supply me a fuel card

like F*k I could afford to fill up two gas guzzling cars on my own

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
