    Fuel Issues

    The only Shell that I know of that still sells V-Power Racing is in Ashburton on High Street. Its always 169.9 liter. I spoke to the servo attendant and they will no longer stock it within 2 months. I honestly believe it is a far superior fuel to the 98 RON varieties. The car runs smoother with no knock when thrashing the car. The other 98 RON fuels seem to be very similar with no noticeable difference between them (unless you cop a bad batch)
  2. It does seem very cheap. See if you can get log books to confirm km's. Be wary of Nismo dash clusters. Get a mechanic to check for accident repair.
  3. Headlight fixed. It sucks that you can't buy single Phillips diamond vision globes. Another $90 bucks I had to fork out.
  4. I use Shell V-Power racing a fair bit which is 100RON and its awesome. Car runs smoother with less knock in the upper revs
  5. Ill throw in the blue turbosmart intake pipe as seen in the above pic too.
  6. This is what the plenum looked like when installed.
  7. Yeah that was me. Good to see another SAU'er out and about. Also passed a purple R33 on Murumbeena road last week. Looked and sounded modified. I was the silver R33 heading the other way. Some rat scratched my car over the weekend. Looks like a someone trying to make a turn and just touched the side of my car. So pissed off. Why are people such dogs?
  8. Plenum sale fell through so still available. Wheels sold.
  9. They are all great. Way too hard to choose one over the other. All depends on how much money you have to spend.
  10. Plenum sold pending payment Wheels may be sold as of monday

  12. A mate driving behind me noticed that I had flames coming from my exhaust when booting it hard. Took the car to Protek and Dom said it was just a tuning issue. After having the car tuned all was good again and haven't noticed the problem since.
  13. I would be seriously doubting the legitimacy of the kms on the R33 unless log books are supplied. Regardless, $18,990 is way too much for a stockish R33. Go the R34 as newer is better. I would recommend trying to make sure the car comes with a few mods so as to save you cash later. Eg, rims, exhaust, intercooler (only if using the stock piping without cutting holes)
  14. I drove a modified R33 for 18 months on my P's and only ever got randomly pulled over once and even then they didn't defect the car or query my right to drive the vehicle. Since my P's though I have been pulled over about 8 times (in the last year or so) and only finally got defected on Tuesday night after a random pull over. It seems to all depend on: - How low your car is - How loud your car is - Bodykits attract attention - Doing dumb shit attracts attention - Driving in certain areas attracts attention However if you get a highway patrol officer who is really after you, I have just discovered first hand your gonna get punished
  15. I live like 200m from Glen Iris station and my car is mostly parked outside. Never had a problem. All I could recommend is don't park in the actual station carpark where scum patrol looking for cars to break into. Instead just park in a side street and you should be fine. Unfortunate to hear though.
  16. I think that would of been me. My number plate is TVS*** and I'm always around there for uni. Anyone see me getting absolutely reamed by the fuzz last night on Springvale Road approx 9pm. Randomly pulled over and majorly defected. It sucks so much.
  17. Will definitely be going on the day if Geelong make it. MCC membership FTW!
  18. I have recently changed from BP Ultimate to Shell V Power Racing and it is definitely a superior fuel. Where as my car used to sometimes get knock up around 6,000rpm now I don't get any knock. It also makes the car feel more responsive. It's good to see that United is bringing out a 100 RON fuel as I didn't want to have to go back to BP Ultimate! Just thought I would let you all know Ashburton Shell sell V Power Racing for 1.69 a liter and the price hasn't changed at all over the past 3 weeks. Hence when ever its high price time the extra coin for V Power Racing is only about 9.5-15c a liter over regular fuel. What a bargain! I went to a Shell on Burwood Hwy and V Power Racing was like $1.85 a liter

  20. Also spotted 2 very nice R33's at Holmesglen McDonalds last night at approx 12.45AM. One was white with rims, exhaust, kit. Looked really nice and was leaving as I arrived. Then as I was leaving a custom orange painted one went past. Also sounded nicely modified with custom plates
  21. yeah i spotted that one today too. It needed a wash badly. I also spotted a silver R33 GTS4 on the next floor up. It had one of the cheapest and most awful looking kits i had ever seen
  22. Just a couple of lazy pics I took with my crap camera phone the other day
  23. Nah, I work behind the bar but was at the door when you left. My car will usually be around there on the weekend
  24. I think I saw stolen_s15 leaving my work on Chapel Street after a few drinks tonight and get in his silver S2 R33 with SAU stickers. Also spotted a black R32 GTS-T with SAU stickers which passed me on Dandenong Road near Orrong Road at approx 2AM
