I heard a rumor it is Shell 91 in the Costco pumps but I have never tried (nor am I a Costco member)

That rumor is from earlier in the thread (pages 70-72):

Same Stuff for much less.

That said, I've never seen so many clueless people trying to get gas all in one place all at the same time.

I keep meaning to go check out the pumps there to figure out if their 91 had ethanol...

How'd you find out/know it's Shell gas??

It was discussed somewhere else... I think redflagdeals.

Plus: I asked the attendant if they knew the ethanol content and they said they get it from shell.

If you ever watch the tanker pull up you'll see it comes out of the shell depot right next door.... and if you watch it pull out it often goes to the shell station just down the street.

Cheers

Saw only my 4th twin over here (a red GT86 this time) outside a pub near Lutterworth called "The Pig in Muck"
the roads I was on today would be awesome in my FR-S....

Saw a white BRZ this morning with a custom plate. Was going down Terry Fox near Hazeldean towards the highway. Looked like Enkei rims on it...maybe, they looked good.

Hey Klinn...

I plan to go at least once before I store mine.
But not tonight.

Sure thing, the full size version is here: http://www.designamatic.com/Graphics...t05-Mike02.jpg
Here's another taken a couple of seconds before which I didn't like as much: http://www.designamatic.com/Graphics...t05-Mike01.jpg

Nice shot of the autumn leaves and sexy wheels you posted!

@brz2013 -- That sure sucks! Hope the damage is external only. Any speculation as to why it happened?

No idea.....looks like the turbo ate something....but it's a closed system. It has massive play in the shaft so we are assuming a chunk of a blade broke off hitting the other ones. Will know more Tuesday

FRS_Ken · 10-13-2013, 08:16 PM

@brz2013 - ohhhh snap!!! Any warranty on the turbo itself? That sucks - pun intended but I do feel really bad for you and your BRZ

Yeah that was me

And yes they're Enkei Raijins... good eye. Missed the fall cruise, as I was down in Toronto for a NIN concert.

...And damn, that turbo looks rough >.<

Slick · 10-14-2013, 10:52 AM

Ouch, sorry to hear that.
Seems really odd to have that kind of impeller damage with a closed system. Hope there is no internal damage.
