So I managed to get the plenum off in the car and i've got the head off too, look what I found =D

That's normal for an RB, just put thicker oil in it and it'll take care of itself.

I put all sorts of 98 in my car and I can never tell the difference

Shell/BP/Caltex/Mobil all the same to me

Though I do prefer to fill it up at BP due to hearsay, but when there isn't a BP around I'm not fussed

i have tuned my car with shell once.... never again

we had to stop adding timing @ 267rwkw - changed to bp and got to 283rwkw with less knock

that's enough info for me

i'm not the first person to have less than favourable results from shell fuel

lol.

i will have to agree with hamish on this.

United 100 octane wins my vote though. that tad bit of ethanol goes quite a long way with reducing knock etc.

Cbr1000rr this morning with P plates...

Pretty sure that's legit...I think if you're still on your Ps for your car you have to display P plates on motorcycle, even if you've waited your year of restrictions.

Yep, had heaps of people pull me up on having P's on my Gixxer 750.

Honestly think it would be wise for them to increase restrictions until you're off your P's and keep the one year rule for people over 21. If car drivers have to cop it then motorcyclists should too. Plus all the <21 year old riders I know that aren't racing definitely can't use the power of those bikes correctly.

What was in the tank when you got your car tuned the other week? (Also how much did you make?)

Now that you're tuned, if you go to a Shell or Mobile etc and you do get a randomly low octane fuel, you'll know about it pretty quick ;)

Its been previously tuned with Trent when I had the nistune about 2 years ago.

It's on BP atm made 265rwkw on dying coilpacks

Going in for a retune on Thursday

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
