The petrol price is just a killer.

Aniways, for those who do not know, BP is having a promotion "Win free fuel for a year" BP FREE FUEL ENTRY..hurry up, ends sept 20. :unsure:

On my way home from tafe today somewhere in Sth Perth I seen unleaded for $1.28 (ultimate plus 9c $1.37), and then near my house at 2 BP's both were $1.38 ($1.47)!!! How the f**k can BP justify the difference in price?????????

Its 52 $50 fuel vouchers....

$50 wouldnt even fill the tank with ultimate

well yeah not any more anyway.

i thought my fuel economy was getting worse cos i was calculating by the dollar (ie $50 of fuel gets me how many kms)... and i thought wtf, it's getting worse... stupid me got it wrong, it's cos i'm getting less fuel for my buck that's why it's getting worse...

rezz what's japan's prices? last time i went back (dec-04 to feb-05) it was... 129yen per litre? they have great service over there too... :)

Still cheaper than UK and Europe.. I was paying over a quid a liter ($2.39739 /L AUD) for diesel over there - and that was cheaper than petrol.

Anyone think about the wicked GST bonus the govt is getting from these price increases? When fuel was $1.20/L they would have been getting about 12c/L. Now it's $1.50/L they'll be getting 15c/L.

Doesn't sound like much but think that they haven't had to put any effort into this tax increase. Then think why they aren't going to do much about the price increase. Also think that you're actually paying GST on state govt levies.

Now get angry....

I also filled up for that magical 147c/L yesterday, atleast i can say that i set a personal record for money spent on a tank of fuel. Good thing the 31 is fantastic on fuel and i've had a work vehicle for the last 2 weeks or so, i've had a decent run i suppose.

I can only see the price going up from here but :)

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
