Was talkin' to a couple of Norvac fella's the other day and they were tellin' me that some servo's (Caltex) round Tassie have been earmarked for PULP 98, just happens to be one of the earmarked one's right across the road from me! May be here sooner than we think!

I spose any 98ron is good but I'd prefer BP ultimate.

earmarked, that could take years. And with the cost of 95PULP imagine how much they'll charge for 98 when it gets here. Tassie sucks, petrol way more expensive, houses way more expensive even for shitholes..... ... ..end rant sorry.

It's depressing trying to buy a house down here.

I wouldn't complain to much about the cost of petrol here!! You should try some of the coastal towns along the Vic/NSW coast! When I was up there in Feb PULP was nearly $1.20 ltr then, was payin' nearly $1.30 for PULP 98!

As for realestate, well let's no start on that!

You don't know what your've got till you loose it!!

Wouldn't it be cheaper to go to a servo on the mainland, and fill a 40 galon drum with 98ron, and bring it down with you for Targa? Or do you use that 100+ron stuff? There were afew cars running on left over F1 fuel accouple of years ago.

yeah we looked at it but it is a logistical disaster, 500l of fuel carted all over tassie :) not to mention the rules required to ship fuel on the boat. All too hard so we just do the same as most people and buy it down there.

The serious guys are using the elf turbomax at ~$8 per litre.....for 500l....ouch...

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
