Opened up my filters two weeks ago after sitting around from November with E85 in the tank. These fuel filters were cleaned in July/August last year. This is what came out. Was pretty yuck.

Whole fuel system went in the bin!

You bought it from uni group, they used Brad, fatz had exactly the same tank and is the only other person I've seen with this issue 

I used Unigroup and they had the fabricator across the road make it.

i had no clue e85 reacts badly to aluminium, albeit poor quality aluminium none the less.

do most just run stainless set ups, or is it just the luck of the draw with aluminium?

Just make sure the surge tank has been anodised properly.

I believe the likes of Aftermarket Industries and Radium both state their tanks are 100% E85 compatible.

I've got several mates (mainly in the EVO game) running these surge tanks with just plain old boring $10 Ryco fuel filters with no issues what so ever.

Then again, like myself they always blend in 98RON when the car will be sitting around for long periods.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
