lol...

just wondering how everyone else's car idles?

mine is a bit rough until its 100% up to temp, and then it still wont hold as much as pulp...

not sure if it's the tune or the fuel... we only really threw a quick tune at it, pretty much just looked at the top end so as not to kill it

thanx ant, i thought i remembered you saying something about that, but f**ked if i'm looking through 28 pages for it :)

on a side note United has now got e85 listed @ a 2nd servo in melb, about 1k from work! :PBJ:

Where's that?

farken NOWHERE!

united have kingsway listed as having e85 on their website AND they told me it would be there when i called head office!

BUT ITS NOT THERE!

i went in today expecting to fill up and there is no pump... this is the SECOND time united have told me incorrect information relating to e85... last time after speaking to head office i drove out to buleen to NO avail!

UNBELIEVABLY disorganised company.... they dont have head office listed with directories, or even most of their outlets!

not happy jan.... srsly how freakin hard is it?

/ :(

Sure, the servo is 1000 kay away. ;)

maybe i can help with distributing the stuff. the guy who has the servo at rozelle seems to be a nice guy. i could ask him if he would be interested in helping ship the stuff out.

One of our time attack sponsors is a fuel distributor up here GT, They are looking in to it atm but if they dont come through I will look at ideas from there. I have been interested in this stuff for a couple of years and it pisses me that they grow it up here and ship it past us to you guys down south. ;)

SHOCKING NEWS!!!

E85 will no longer be available from the bowser!!!

Went to both Enhance servos and they said E85 wont be available until further notice.

Apparently the bowsers are calibrated for petrol (derr)

But due to E85s different chemical makeup the calibration gets thrown out of whack.

So 1L is not exactly 1L.

The petrol companies have brought this to the governments attention, so from now on E85 is only available in 200L drums.

And get this, the price is $500 per drum (due to extra shipping and handling costs)

Farkin pisses me off!!

There is a petrolchemical company that can supply the drums but at $2.50/L and at $500 at a time i think ill parking the car until i can get some sort of hard evidence that this is all true.

Ill keep you all posted.

WTF! fark off!

is this united aswell?

I would say so.

I think its a bloody conspiracy.

Now that people have shown that cars can run on this stuff with no problem, and making big ponies with it.

The petrol companies are scared that this will affect their bottom line seeing as only 15% of petrol being used.

Pisses me off to the max if this turns out to be the case!!!

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
