Anyone here in sydney running E85 or E-Flex that's also got a zeitronix ethanol sensor kit (e.g. Alpha Omega kit) setup in their cars?

Just want to know what the average ethanol rating the sensor shows, from what I've heard caltex in the central coast seems pretty consistent at E70-72.

I'm targeting the E-Flex pumps at Ermington and Holsworthy as possible fill up servos, just wanted to know as ECU is currently prohibiting me from being able to utilise an ethanol sensor kit.

im using the eth sensor with a link G4 ecu tuned by unigroup,

been getting my fuel from the caltex on the corner of Nuwarra and newbridge road, havent complety emptied a tank and put ethenol in it but id say its around the E70 range. They are still using the winter blend though and are supposed to be changing over to full 85 at the end of the month

Ive got the zeitronics ECA, but only use it tell me the Ethanol Content as I havn't done a flex tune.

I have found that rozelle united is always around 85%, sometimes 84-83 but never much less.

Only put caltex in once, got it from tempe and it was around the 78% mark..

nice :)

the Caltex at pendle hill near unigroup used to sit on e69-e70 but I havent used that in a few months

United e85 from Blaxland and Rozelle sits at e82 in mine

    • Honestly, for a daily I would gladly rock a Camry. The more disposable the better. People drive horribly out here and road conditions are awful.
    • Verify it's going into each of the 4 gears in normal acceleration, make sure the torque converter locks up over ~65-70 kph or so at low throttle opening. If you ease into the throttle at those speeds eventually you should get a "gear" between 3rd unlocked and 4th locked. It should downshift eventually if you floor it at 65 kph too. Get some Matic D ATF and drain the pan, check for signs of sadness in fluid and drain plug magnet. Top off to the correct level afterwards. If the transmission is worth saving you can drop the pan on a second drain and change the filter while you're at it. These are not complicated transmissions, at least compared to modern stuff.
    • A seat I find stupidly comfortable to sit in is the one in a friend's Merc Race Car. It even has the huge wings that wrap around your head. Best ever. Only issue is climbing through his scaffolding he put up in the doorway of the car... Ha ha ha. I sat in that seat for a couple of hours doing wiring. Another stupid comfortable seat I find, especially if my back is aching, is my OMP fixed back bucket seat too. I'll just sit on it when I'm exhausted in the garage sometimes to relax!
    • I just got off the phone with Dean from Vosta in Brisbane. They are the ones that do the replica seats and they have a shop full of seats for my to try out. Lovely guy.  I haven't decided whether to go genuine or replicas, I'm leaning towards Genuine at this point but who knows.  Also thinking the STRADIAs are the way to go VS the GIAS since they have a lower hip edge and would be easier to get into. Don't really like the idea of arm rests on the models to the right of this diagram either, maybe they can be removed?
    • From my own first hand experience, keeping power for a fun Street able skyline down at a responsive low 200 wheel KW, is the best. It makes it super drive able through the twisties, you're not just smashing mass wheel spin, or only able to open the throttle for a split second before being at absurd speeds. That said, plenty of people like being morons at more than double the speed limit on public roads and hence are happy with 600whp and seeing 200kmh fly up frequently and fast. Also, at that low 200, a GTR can still do a decent quarter mile, and with a bit of fancy  clutch work (foot, not the parts) can still beat many many cars in a traffic light gp, even in the wet.
