"Hi xxxxx,

You are correct; fuel companies at the moment are experiencing a shortage in stock due to a refinery issue earlier this year and therefore running low on certain fuels. This is an industry wide problem, so BP is not the only company experiencing these difficulties.

At the moment, the quoted time in which this problem will be rectified is April, however I cannot guarantee this.

Bp does aplogise to all our loyal customers for this inconvenience and I assure you that BP is doing everything humanly possible to get the stock levels back up to standards.

As BP is committed to providing quality fuels to our customers no

alternative has been adopted as yet.

Kind Regards

Well until the 98RON fuel gods decide to stock us up again, I think that this would be a good thread to list places where 98RON CAN still be bought. Would you be happy to update the first thread with locations Sam or should I start a new thread?

To get the ball rolling:

Friday 21st March - BP Victoria Rd, Rydalmere - BP Ultimate 98

lucky i have half a tank and my car won't be driven till like autosalon or something lol

Most 98RON petrols "go off" so to speak after around 2 weeks. The additives they use break down and it is no longer 98RON.

In saying that, I wouldn't be keeping any petrol in the car for a long period of time.

Couldn't find any 98RON in Newcastle this morning....Shell have not had V-power for at least 6-8 weeks up here...BP are now all out...Some servos up here don't even stock 98RON at all...

Anyone know anyone who has access to toluene???

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
