BP 98 RON fuel has consistantly tested higher then the competitors when it comes to the actual RON rating

The higher the RON the less likely your engine is to ping and detonate i.e damage pistons and other internals

Don't waste your time with Shell or the others I have heard horror stories here in VIC... everyone in the know here uses BP 98 only :cool:

Argh, none of them are near me. I'm in Inglewood. Hope the Shell at Highgate gets it soon.

I used to use V-Power in NSW so I'm keen to get back to using it as I was never disappointed.

I used Shell 98 on and off in Adelaide the past 10 years or so... never had a problem. Glad there's a few here now though, so I can use my $50 Shell voucher from SAU!! :D

Which Shell locations are carrying V-Power already?

Hi there,

It's Katie here on behalf of Shell.

For a complete listing of Coles Express sites where Shell V-Power is available, please see the article 'Shell Launch V Power in WA' on the homepage of Syklines Australia at http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/

There's a PDF at the top of the article that contains a full outlet listing.

Cheers,

K

    • As a general rule removing rubber fuel hose is so difficult I would replace it if it hasn't been done in the last 5 years. The risk you damage the liner or one of the inner layers is pretty high if it's not almost brand new. BMW's recommendations around coolant hoses is similar. My R33's fuel hoses at the fuel tank were so perished that they were ready to burst FYI. 
    • Ah yep, will do. Cheers!
    • Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.
    • https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.  Discounted tickets 20% off for their various tickets until the 3rd of Feb Monday. Drags, show and shine etc.  I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.  I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.  https://gtrfestival.com.au
