dont wanna type my rant 2wice so i'll ctrl-v it:

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?

There is NO E85 on Kings Way yet.

I'll know as soon as there is because Lowth drives to the west with 4 jerry cans... he wouldnt be doing that if there was some on Kings Way because he's as lazy as i am :P

I think its listed on thier website as being there, but isnt actually "there" yet

well the tank is at 1/4 full (my standard refill point) and i have done 220k's, nomally i get 320...

so in essence.... if the price of e85 2/3 of the price of 98 then you are getting a free power increase..... and if its below 2/3 you are actually SAVING $$

220kms is that driving with feather foot or driving like how its ment to be driven.

i so want to go to e85 but its going to be a pain for long cruises like GOR or if i ever feel like taking a long drive. gotta carry Jerry cans in the boot.

so tempting to make the switch :cool:

You have a GTR? :)

yep, gone over to the dark side :D

Nathan's old 33 GTR... is a bit of an animal... would love to tune it on E85 as it runs the old Trust plain bearing turbos and although its not real laggy or wanting for power it would be a weapon with an E85 tune

pity you have to drive to woop woop to get the stuff!

320 to a tank?

Jebus... i get 400km's to a tank city driving... open road its closer to 550-600

read harder ash... :P

320k's to 1/4 tank.... i NEVER get it less than 1/4 so i wouldn't really know what i get to a full tank

read harder ash... :down:

320k's to 1/4 tank.... i NEVER get it less than 1/4 so i wouldn't really know what i get to a full tank

Ah... ye :P Was late... lol

but 220km/s to 3/4 a tank

phark... you need a mobile tanker service

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
