I'm not too concerned. Over a whole tank it's like 4 bucks or something. I could skip on buying coffee twice a week to even things out. Agree with Rob though, yeah not much we can do about it though unfortunately

It's all hocus pocus.
And I blame the Arabs and greed.

I still reckon this is like the fuel crisis in the late 70'sd to mid 80's.
Fuel guzzlers get sold for cheap, then fuel prices come back down when waaaay more is "found" (lol.. there's enough to last the planet at current consumption for the next 50+ years just sitting in barrels....)

But.. at the end of the day, we'll kill ourselves before we get into deep space.

This generation wont see the amazing advancements the ones 2,3,and 4 before us saw during their lives. Ah well.

No one is gonna like it, but we all have to live with it and deal. Make of things now, when fuel keeps going up, may have to change cars...

As it is, I ride my bike as often as I can, I do get more enjoyment out of my car when I drive it around after having driven it less.

The reason why it goes up is because the biggest reservoir in Saudi is running out fast. So they bump their prices coz of demand. If the Saudis are charged more tax for their oil rigs everyone downstream will feel the magnitude.

This is why I have a motorcycle I fill up $22 bucks for 430ks

Id buy a road bike...but not with canberra drivers lol

One of the main reasons Harley's and sports bikes are allowed way over the db level. Lazy little f**kers who won't turn their heads to look into the lane they want to be in.

I found Canberra drivers to be pretty good though :/

      OEM Soko: Japanese business supplying Automotive items from Japan - Freebie inside!

      We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning.

      Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
