Just moved to ACT for a few months, have JB+!

Hi Guys,

I'm going to be based in Canberra for the next few months for work, my car's here and just about to put my JB+ in...

First in to hit Australia! (I believe)

Really want a buy a scan tool before installing it... or has anyone in Canberra got one??

Cheers

Simon

Let us know how it goes with the 98 Octane. SSTT2 will come with an octane-variable option.

Yeah will do, bear in mind that the octane is basically the same between USA and AUS....

RON Octane VS Octane AKI, USA use a different measurement.

( RON Octane Rating x 0.95 = AKI Octane Rating )
98 RON Octane x 0.95 = 93.1 AKI Octane (US measure)
100 RON Octane x 0.95 = 95 AKI Octane (US measure)

You must have received your JB+ about the same time as me (about 2 weeks ago) as I know there was another sent to Australia at the same time.
Have not had a chance to put it in the car yet but have used the BT scanner I ordered at the same time. It seems to be a great product so far and well worth the money.

Mine is the Enthusiast version which I would think constitutes about 90%+ of it's sales as it's relative inexpensive compared to the Pro.

Gravity Auto Sports have a group buy on the enthusiast BT scanner going at the moment in the commercial section, which is currently looking like coming in around
$350 AUD delivered.
Once it goes over 20 buyers a further discount will apply.
A few guys on here are in on it but it ends tonight ,so you would need to jump in fairly quickly.
