UPDATE ON FUEL SHORTAGES

==============

BP has advised that their refinery is now back up and running. They will be supplying premium unleaded petrol and 98 Ron (marketed at BP sites as 'Ultimate') to retail sites as of today. It may take a few days for all sites to be fully stocked, so to be sure fuel is available, you should contact the site first.

Ahahah after all those scare tactics i still have half a tank left.

I reckon they just did it to make us all realise that we are hooked and we need them bad.

Hopefully Shell, Mobil & Caltex realise there is a market over here for 98 fuel. Damned east coasters, they can choose from 4!!! BP can put their prices up by 20c a litre for ultimate if they wanted too, there is nowhere else to go.

Yeah I still got heaps of fuel left as well, and I drive to work every day. You're breaking my balls BP, my balls! Breaking 'em!

"There's very little meat in these gym mats!"

?? How close is ur work ??

hey this is Dave aka 'hijaked'

we filled Marks car with Ultimate yesterday... i live out the country ish... i still think im the only customer to use ultimate there....

as for the rest of you... hope to see the ultimate flowing again!!! :(

cheers,

Dave

last nite bp on cambridge street got supplies of it...

FKN BASTARD! i saw the tanker and thought "hmm maybe its ultimate" got my friend 2 go in and ask the guy at the counter when its back and he was like "its all rumours, i just spoke 2 head office and they said mid december AT LEAST"

then half an hr later someone going on a cruise filled up there... the guy said 2 them "yeh the tanker JUST came and delivered the ultimate"

i had vortex in my poor baby :(

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
