Not sure if its got anything to do with the economic crisis or the public has finally noticed that the price of oil has dropped but not the pump price, but comign home today I was petrol for udner $1 a litre.

Not too long ago it was about 169.9c ish. Not sure how much Premium is but when it was $1.08 Premium was still $1.20 ish.

Might fill up tonight, but everytime I do it just drops more and more. I never thought we'd see it for under $1. Was picturing looking back at photos of pump priced being under $1 and telling everyone how good it used to be, but now thats a reality.

So whens it gonna jump again?

Fking yeah son, bout time our arses were given a break from petty costs. Last I remember it being this like was when I had my 180 a good few years ago.

I'll hopefully be starting pizza delivery in the 32 soon for some extra dosh, good time for petty prices to fall ;)

Yeah take it easy with those Pizzas, 30mins or free is that how it works?

EDIT: seems we are still paying more then Melbourne and Sydney, the only other capitals paying more are Hobart and Darwin ;)

Finally justifiable about the crazy world oil prices and the falling american dollar, not to mention falling australian dollar and the bump for economic growth.

Keep it up Rudd... just until i buy my first home, and then hope for some economic growth ;)

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
