Joeyjoejoe's E85 Tuning Adventutres

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i'm on my way there today to fill up... hopefully

[Wheezy]

I was very impressed with this car when I saw it, great tune, very streetable.

This might be something I try when it becomes available down my way

[paulr33]

yeah ill head past united kings way today

check if they do have e85

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i didn't see it when i drove past like a week ago.... but you never know!

[NickR33]

any news on the Kings way United having E85?

not that the GTR needs more power but some more timing would be nice to aid drivability

[SS8_Gohan]

i work in sth melb, but won't be in until tomorrow, so if i have time, i'll wander on down to the United and see if the E85 pump is there...

very tempting..........

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

dont wanna type my rant 2wice so i'll ctrl-v it:

united have kingsway listed as having e85 on their website AND they told me it would be there when i called head office!

BUT ITS NOT THERE!

i went in today expecting to fill up and there is no pump... this is the SECOND time united have told me incorrect information relating to e85... last time after speaking to head office i drove out to buleen to NO avail!

UNBELIEVABLY disorganised company.... they dont have head office listed with directories, or even most of their outlets!

not happy jan.... srsly how freakin hard is it?

You have a GTR?

There is NO E85 on Kings Way yet.

I'll know as soon as there is because Lowth drives to the west with 4 jerry cans... he wouldnt be doing that if there was some on Kings Way because he's as lazy as i am

I think its listed on thier website as being there, but isnt actually "there" yet

[SS8_Gohan]

dont wanna type my rant 2wice so i'll ctrl-v it:

should complain vigorously, and demand some free petrol for hardship suffered

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

yeah, i take 2 jerry's for my west trips.... gonna go back to pulp soon i think....

it's a lot of effort for a daily

[tets]

well the tank is at 1/4 full (my standard refill point) and i have done 220k's, nomally i get 320...

so in essence.... if the price of e85 2/3 of the price of 98 then you are getting a free power increase..... and if its below 2/3 you are actually SAVING $$

220kms is that driving with feather foot or driving like how its ment to be driven.

i so want to go to e85 but its going to be a pain for long cruises like GOR or if i ever feel like taking a long drive. gotta carry Jerry cans in the boot.

so tempting to make the switch

[R31Nismoid]

320 to a tank?

Jebus... i get 400km's to a tank city driving... open road its closer to 550-600

[NYTSKY]

At Powercruise i was getting 35L/100km

(On E85)

[NickR33]

You have a GTR?

yep, gone over to the dark side

Nathan's old 33 GTR... is a bit of an animal... would love to tune it on E85 as it runs the old Trust plain bearing turbos and although its not real laggy or wanting for power it would be a weapon with an E85 tune

pity you have to drive to woop woop to get the stuff!

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

320 to a tank?

Jebus... i get 400km's to a tank city driving... open road its closer to 550-600

read harder ash...

320k's to 1/4 tank.... i NEVER get it less than 1/4 so i wouldn't really know what i get to a full tank

[T04GTR]

sik. so whats the before after power increase?

[R31Nismoid]

read harder ash...

320k's to 1/4 tank.... i NEVER get it less than 1/4 so i wouldn't really know what i get to a full tank

Ah... ye Was late... lol

but 220km/s to 3/4 a tank

phark... you need a mobile tanker service

[SS8_Gohan]

how many litres does it take to go from 1/4 to full? get a bit of an idea of L/100km

[R31Nismoid]

ok update (i aint looked @ my gauge in a while.

1/2 a tank almost gone and im over 250km's... super light foot this tank, city driving.

hoho.
