I think 30km over is loss for 28 days.

last I heard was 30 km over = 1 month loss, and its either 40 or 45 over is 3 month loss.

Hey vlad, I've got scales if you wanna weigh the cars to find out for sure

Im pretty sure here in Victoria if you get caught 25kms over the speed limit you loose your car for 30 days under the 'hoon laws'

I think your right bigvl, gota be careful overtaking

in my younger days when i had my raptor-charged vn, the custom tune that was done for that for raptor, had a lean cruise function enabled in it.
either with the supercharger the economy was noticably better!
my vx1 berlina regularly gets 600km to and from work (melb CBD to hopeless crossing) before i have to fill up. it sits somewhere around the 9.5 /10 per 100.

That would be handy to know the weight.

I've been told contradictive things from people who work in the force about overtaking.

Also seen legislation somewhere one stating that the posted speed limit is the 85th percentile of the safe maximum speed. A guy I know on another forum claims to use that to nullify cops attempt to give him a ticket lol.

Not sure if thats still current or not though?

Just checking over stuff atm. Did all my rings. Duggan's did check and mark the rings that were critical, the top ones and said all unmarked rings checked ok in any bore.

So I went and double checked. What they marked was really good and consistent. I went and applied the same ring to bore mix/match to get the largest gap and best consistency. So my gaps were all bang in the middle of the tolerance range for the minimum gaps measured, all other rings were a tad more but still in the middle range.


These oil rings are supper thin. I had trouble measuring them as the slightest touch with the feeler gauge moved them out of place. Breathing on them almost moved them lol.
So my biggest minimums achieved is this. Pretty happy with that.


Also ordered some stuff from ZZP, aussie dollar is terrible, so 480 bucks worth cost me about 720. And those dick head politicians rave how good it is.

Still, cheaper than buying here. The rollmaster timing set is over double here even though its made here

I did stock up on some ecotec parts too, those alloy intake gaskets are only 44 for a set so I bought 2 to take advantage of the shipping.

Anyone know what the part number is for the plastic CAS shield for ecotec is?. Just want to add that to my NewGMparts cart and I can sort that order too. Stocking up on bolts, gaskets, little misc parts that are super cheap. like $4 for gaskets that cost over 30 bucks here and thats genuine GM too.

Been talking to Dylan about inverse temp term table. He gave me a hand on getting mine right as my AFRs were wondering depending on the charge temp which in turn responses to ambient outside temp.

So got it very close to spot on and then I have to go fix the VE table as its been effected by leaning out at high temps and over rich at cold temps.

I wasn't sure how to go about it but with Dylan's help I got a means of interpreting logged data and making the adjustments now. I have come up with a good idea on setting up the tune to make all over variables minimal to make it easy, no driving involved or dyno required.

I will do a write up that perhaps can be added to the tuning guide at some stage.

yeah man happy to add stuff to tuning guides if you have something there we haven't covered.

also with the buick oil rings, your not wrong they are wafer thin hey!
