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

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
