Was talkin' to a couple of Norvac fella's the other day and they were tellin' me that some servo's (Caltex) round Tassie have been earmarked for PULP 98, just happens to be one of the earmarked one's right across the road from me! May be here sooner than we think!

I spose any 98ron is good but I'd prefer BP ultimate.

earmarked, that could take years. And with the cost of 95PULP imagine how much they'll charge for 98 when it gets here. Tassie sucks, petrol way more expensive, houses way more expensive even for shitholes..... ... ..end rant sorry.

It's depressing trying to buy a house down here.

I wouldn't complain to much about the cost of petrol here!! You should try some of the coastal towns along the Vic/NSW coast! When I was up there in Feb PULP was nearly $1.20 ltr then, was payin' nearly $1.30 for PULP 98!

As for realestate, well let's no start on that!

You don't know what your've got till you loose it!!

Wouldn't it be cheaper to go to a servo on the mainland, and fill a 40 galon drum with 98ron, and bring it down with you for Targa? Or do you use that 100+ron stuff? There were afew cars running on left over F1 fuel accouple of years ago.

yeah we looked at it but it is a logistical disaster, 500l of fuel carted all over tassie :) not to mention the rules required to ship fuel on the boat. All too hard so we just do the same as most people and buy it down there.

The serious guys are using the elf turbomax at ~$8 per litre.....for 500l....ouch...

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
