I have been giving the current fuel situation some thought and i have decided that it is not a refinery problem as we have been told. I now believe this to be a conspiracy to remove imports from the streets! So far they have tried everything, whopping insurance prices, "random" defect stations that only seem to pull up imports and the new hoon laws so they can actually take our cars, but it has not been enough. They are not happy with removing imports one at a time, or banning us from the road for a week or so at a time. Some bright spark has realised that imports run on 98 octane fuel, and most of the public doesnt, so it is my theory that they have removed 98 octane in an attempt to stop all imports. The really sad thing is although a few bootleg supplies are available scattered througout Sydney the supply shortage is infact working and a significant decline in import use is occuring.

Ok, im gunna put my tinfoil hat back on because the aliens are at my front door with a video of who really shot JFK

i was going to the 24hr mobil on the hume highway (m5) at pheasants nest, and yet even that not is OUT OF ORDER! found vortex 98 on blaxland rd campbelltown, although i feel awful putting that shit in my car.

no one could expect this to kill imports, or rather, performance cars. how easy is it to buy octane booster? just inconvenient and a bit pricey.

+1 for the whole situation being ludicrous.

:laughing-smiley-014:

Typical government not thinking this through well though.

I wonder what those XR6 Turbos run like on 91 RON... police will start driving around in Holden Epicas/Daewoo Toscas? :whistling:

Caltex has there own refinary..But they were still putting "out of order" on there pumps so could charge the higher price on the certain days :rant:

I found the Pheasant nest didn't have any 98 either.. and the same thing with most of the fuel stations on the way to melbourne expect for one BP out in the middle of nowhere in wangaratta VIC :whistling: still 3 hours out of Melbourne but managed to have 98RON at $1.60 a litre!!! :rofl:

Sucks if this goes on for a long while..

Too hard to do road trips and having to plot your fuel stops around town..its just f**ked!!

Last time i filled up i put a bottle of octane booster in.Lucky for me i wasnt charged for it.He scanned it before i filled up,while i was filling he served a few customers,when i paid for the fuel he forgot about the octane booster :P

    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it. 
    • It always seems the uglier an animal is the more is costs
    • It's all about the socialisation of the dogs. In that first 8 to 16 weeks of age they need to be taught to be nice and friendly with everything. That way they generalise it to everything. That said, some days you'll just never beat genetics, but 99% of the time dogs chasing cats is purely lack of socialisation, and then the chasing part can turn into prey drive.
    • I bench bled my HFM BM57 before installing, it leaked badly. Threw it in the bin, because I installed it 2 years after purchase.
