  1. If he wears a monacle........he is possibly the coolest hipster around
  2. hey Aaron.. tyre went a little flat, but i pumped it up again
  3. yep or dishwashing liquid...Prepsol as mentioned ,is great for cleaning those smokey stains of your paint and get heaps of those 5 for 10$ degreaser cans from supercheap...they blow grime off in places you cant reach...or if you have a air compressor buy a degreaser gun...
  4. just don't wash at carwash...driveway with a bucket and hose ftw......high pressure not really needed unless covered in mud..
  5. Aspiration is over rated... aspire to nobody but yourself
  6. re we talking about u Jono?
  7. Why would he want a gerbal?
  8. I got one for 20$ at random.speed parts shop so I could set my pressure..works fine still sitting in there cabletied to my strut brace...
  9. whaTever happened to josh...he wanted tris for ages...
  10. Be nice...
  11. You stick a bung in the turbo intake and pump it full of air man
  12. hey Aaron.... tyres still not flat
  13. is that why you don't top up your oil Scott?
  14. So how does the old Morning Fresh stack up Tez? interesting that FW1 actually faired pretty well considering the bad wrap it gets...I still often use dishwashing liquid pre polishing only, it does the job and its cheap and plentiful...something like ct18 is better though..however on cars I have full detailed with sealants, waxes etc the dishwashing liquid never goes near them again....there is better products that add to what you have already put down and others that will strip it...
  15. nice...they would handle 300kws pretty easy me thinks
  16. I never said i run my skyline on e10 did I.. I said I run the wifes 2004 accord on e10 because 1 it is cheaper 2 it is her car I barely drive it and 3 it is perfectly safe to do so now I may be at fault here for comparing a later model nissan v6 to an earlier model honda V6...or maybe honda just build better cars that aren't so temperamental to minor octane changes..... as for my skyline it always got premium because I noticed the difference and it was running extra boost..... It is a turbo car after all and as with any turbo, higher octane makes a noticable difference.. But i do believe they were designed in the 80s so Im sure they run fine on 91-95 octane fuel. and I would be perfectly comfortable to do so....I mena all it says inside the cap is "unleaded fuel only".. the only real benefit of 98 is a slight power increase...sititng on 3-4000rpm day to day driving isnt going to make a lick of difference to a standard boost skyline.... back in 86 when the VL came out , what motor was in that! a turbo RB30 that didnt even have an intercooler was 95 even available then? fwiw my skyline runs on straight e85 now...like a dream too.... That car was tuned to the limit on 98...it was not a "factory spec" car...and he must of been hammering the thing to blow it
  17. Cressdia for for the win....
  18. Yeah maybe I have my wires crossed...it seems the euro standard is 95ron...maybe Japo standard is higher. But I totally agree, if the manual is recommending 98 then yeah you should be running that..
  19. ouch...dem fires....
  20. hey i'm happy to be proven wrong if I am.... now go here and see a list of manufacturers who support the use of e10 http://www.fcai.com.au/environment/can-my-vehicle-operate-on-ethanol-blend-petrol- and any Nissan post 2004 is e10 compatible... now I imagine maybe that only covers Australian built cars..but isn't a v36 very similar to a 370z which is sold here...
  21. here mate straight form the owners manual of a 2010 infinity..its all i could find...
  22. Does it say in the owners manual ...use 98RON...if so then there is the answer to OPs question.... Does it matter if he chooses to put e10 in it everyday instead of 98?...No, not one bit....
  23. 95-98 ..is there really that much difference? if i can get 95 octane e10 for 1.30$ a litre when 98 is a 1.60 a litre...thats at least a 15$ saving on a full tank of fuel...if i am using a tank a week thats maybe an 800$ a year saving...thats my registration paid....add to that ethanol will help clean your fuel system as well as any additives they put in 98....I don't see the problem except maybe 2kws and a bit less range..and i dont use 15$ worth of fuel in 50kms... if e10 was the only fuel at the pump, everyone would run it ..but people like choices, this is the MAIN reason we have different fuels...if water was the only drink in the fridge, you would happily drink it but no, go to a servo and there is 4572 different drinks to choose from...why? because peopel like choice...truth is it really makes no difference what pump fuel you run because your car was built for its tolerances in mind......true some fuel might make your car live a little longer, but alot of people couldn't care care less...cars are disposable... people like choice end
  24. yep... a good tuner would of fixed all his leaks for free and still shouted him a beer afterwards..
