hats off to your dedication, to save 45minutes i would pay a LOT lol

Actually one interesting thing about that...

My mole of an ex used to work at Cannon Hill.

I'd drop her off at work in the morning, and then make my way over to work at the airport.

One week I did the gateway (timed each run, counted up tolls and fuel at the end of the week)

Next one I went over the Story Bridge and through New Farm (timed each run, counted up fuel at the end of the week)

I didn't get a single gateway run under an hour, and it cost me more in fuel and tolls. Story Bridge runs took between 27-38 minutes depending on how many red lights I got.

This was not in school holidays or anything either, just normal work/school days.

Oh, and driving through all the suburbs there were school girls to look at. Faster, cheaper, and JB :(

yeah gateway sucks ass, but in the instance where the tunnel was actually faster like you said I would pay, I avoind the gateway like the plague at the moment

Te37s on GTS and GTT look shit, the offset on the fronts is always lame, same problem i had with the really cheapshit impuls on the R32, nice at the back terrible at the front

Agree. But I think all wheels that are staggered width/offset look shite.

John doesn't care about that because he refuses to use toll roads.

I wish I could own a road. Hats off to the scum that came up with them it's nearly as good as the lottery.

i too am a believer to dodge that shit like the plague - but i mean $4.30 for what - 2km?

such a dog act

If it's quicker people will use it.

Baller. Sick life.

Yeah it all comes down to how much you value your time. Even if it cost me $20 in tolls to save 45 mins it would still be worth it. Oppurtunity cost bitches.

I'd just take the cheaper option, even if it's longer. I've got music to listen to :(

yeah i could use that 45 minutes to do some of my on the side consulting work and make $100.....but truth be told i would probably just get on the PS3 :( ha ha

That and I already pay rego. I shouldn't have to pay anymore road costs

I'll agree with youn there :(

But when it comes down to it if the toll road is faster, I'll probably use it if the fee is not excessive. $4.30 is pretty excessive, I doubt I will be using the tunnel much

everyone should boycott tolls for 1 week. to protest the price.

remind me to stay off the road that week though.

someone start a facebook group about it. see how fast 92000 people join :(

Kinda like the petrol boycotts. If you actually got EVERYONE in the state/country to do it it might work, but otherwise its just a waste of time.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
