No, not all servos sell 98 octane. Far from it.

hmmm ok then...... every servo i have been to sells it......... but i relatively only ever go to shell caltex and bp i dont risk goin anywhere near the small unnamed ones...... had too much trouble with the shit fuel from them joints in my old car

Couldnt agree more, you never know the quality of their tanks etc. Some look decidedly dodgy.

Down around Wollongong many of the 'big' servos don't sell 98RON at all - even when it is available :\

It was only last week that I tried Vortex 98 as there was nothing else around 98-wise and my car seemed to like it as much as BP Ultimate.

I'll need to fuel up at that Caltex stop once I get there because I'll have already travelled 140 kays :blink:

Why am I still awake? lol...

The Met Bureau says at this stage:

Sunday

A few showers developing.

City: Min: 15 Max: 21

West: Min: 10 Max: 21

Think sunny weather... think sunny weather... :D:D:P

lolz well there ya go....thats probably y our opinions on "the big servos" differ........ the amount of time i drag my ass down to the gong in a year???? maybe once or twice lolz so not really in the know of things down the gong way lolz but yeah i feel ya on the dodginess of some of those smaller joints

Along the cruise their is 98 sold at

West-bound:

Eastern Creek Caltex

Glenbrook Caltex

City-bound:

Blaxland Mobil

Valley Heights BP

However it's only a 200km round trip from Eastern Creek twin servo's to Megalong Valley and back so if you need to fill up during the trip your best off visiting a mechanic instead.

Edit: I hope someone notified the Tea Rooms of all these cars attending as I mentioned earlier in the thread.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
