Sorry my fault mixing english working out with aussie!!

How many litres more are you getting to a tank??

??? :( Don't think it is possible to get more Litres in his tank... maybe more km's to the tank is what you mean?

Edited by iamhe77

I have been travelling to the same site for work the pass few months and weekly I pump petrol at te Shell station, and always pump on wednesday when the fuel is the cheapest. $40-50, is the usual amount I pump, but after using BP for 2 weeks, I only manage to pump $25 he 1st week ( not much driving, only work) and $34 this week (driving more than usual). I was shocked. The car feel more torquey in the mid range.

In all my previous cars i could never ever notice a difference between shell, mobil and bp. I used to think that those people who had a preference were simply crazy.

However, I have to say that my V35 feels as though it does not like shell v-power. I have swapped between the two several times and BP consistently feels better.

I dont often get to a mobil station but the times that i have it has felt the same as BP.

I've used BP ultimate for about 3-4 yrs now so tbh i can't remember what sort of FE I was getting before hand.

But then my daily is a 5.7 litre so I try to not think about the 350km per tank I get.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
