The Caltex and BP on the Princes Hwy at Tempe are always the lowest ive seen.

Caltex was 91.5c for E10

BP was $1.08 for Ultimate

It was 89.9 @ Narrabeen SHELL 2nite...

But that was with a docket...

Filled up with V-Power @ 108.9c

why the hell is newcastle's lowest price we are seeing is 98.9 for normal unleaded but i am cheering about the price drop it used to cost me $90 a week to get 330km out of my fairmont 5L now i am filling up in the skyline for $45 score

Shell is ripping us off 3c a litre (50L x 3c= $1.50 = half a can of red bull... 2 fill ups later we can afford a can) LOL pulp 98 is meant to only be 10c higher than regular ulp shell Is 13c more and bp is like sometimes 16c and higher more so go caltex or mobil to rebel (you see I used to work in the industry and anyway caltex sells pulp to everyone except mobil which makes it's own so it doesn't make a difference except to our pockets), where's everyone getting boost 98 from??? I've seen good dyno runs on that

^^^ Exactly. Still feels like we are getting ripped, just in a different way. Anyone know why the difference became 13c at all pumps(one's I've been to anyway) Caltex, BP and Shell all started doing this once the prices started heading down. What would be the justification?

Not sure myself but just some caltex is ripping us , mobil ftw! Bp seems to always have been doing this though, although they use the same barrel of crude oil to produce 92, 96 and 98 funny isn't it.... Should we complain to the consumer watch dog? As a group ?? I want that red bull dammit

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
