I'm not too concerned. Over a whole tank it's like 4 bucks or something. I could skip on buying coffee twice a week to even things out. Agree with Rob though, yeah not much we can do about it though unfortunately

It's all hocus pocus.
And I blame the Arabs and greed.

lol.

I still reckon this is like the fuel crisis in the late 70'sd to mid 80's.
Fuel guzzlers get sold for cheap, then fuel prices come back down when waaaay more is "found" (lol.. there's enough to last the planet at current consumption for the next 50+ years just sitting in barrels....)

But.. at the end of the day, we'll kill ourselves before we get into deep space.

This generation wont see the amazing advancements the ones 2,3,and 4 before us saw during their lives. Ah well.

No one is gonna like it, but we all have to live with it and deal. Make of things now, when fuel keeps going up, may have to change cars...

As it is, I ride my bike as often as I can, I do get more enjoyment out of my car when I drive it around after having driven it less.

The reason why it goes up is because the biggest reservoir in Saudi is running out fast. So they bump their prices coz of demand. If the Saudis are charged more tax for their oil rigs everyone downstream will feel the magnitude.

This is why I have a motorcycle I fill up $22 bucks for 430ks

Id buy a road bike...but not with canberra drivers lol

One of the main reasons Harley's and sports bikes are allowed way over the db level. Lazy little f**kers who won't turn their heads to look into the lane they want to be in.

I found Canberra drivers to be pretty good though :/

When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
