Hi all new to the skyline world, just bought a r32 gtr and was wondering what the fuel consumption is like on a stockie.

Also whats the fuel consumption on ur car, include mods so i can see what to expect.

Thanks

hows it goin, im alexr33, ive got an r33 gtst with quite a few mods done to it including full 3 inch exh with high flow cat, upgraded turbo, splitfire coils, k & n filter, heavy duty clutch, huge front mount cooler, running 18 pounds just to mention a few and im only getting 225 to 275 ks out of 3/4 of a tank, depending on how i drive of course. But when i got it, it was standard and i only got about 350 ks, so the more mods you do, the more feul she sucks.

should have got better mileage then that from a stock 33, is it tuned properly? (closed loop)

To answer your question, if your worried about fuel consumption. Sell you GTR. Its all in how you use the accellerator.

Thanks for the reply guys, I'm not worried about the fuel consumption just wanted to know what to expect from her as it'll be my daily driver whilst I'm building a show car.

This is what she looks like just after compliance with 68thou K's on the clock, i know the importers so it wasnt wound back from their end.

I'm stripping it back today to respray her, cant stand the gun metal grey paint, its so common. Will be black with purple pearls.

More replies on consumption will be great :(

oh and how many ltrs is the tank?

Sacrilege!! I'll pretend I didn't hear that....

All the guys who have posted back to you here are Gts-t's, you need to run some searches, there has been alot said about the R32 gtr's fuel consumption.

From what i've read anyway, depending on the car, its not uncommon to see anywhere from 200-400k's out of a tank. Pretty big descrepency huh?

hey guys....im looking at getting my first car and dont know whether to get a skyline gtst r33 or a honda integra vtir!

So.....

at some time between 12:12am and 1:05am this morning, you managed to purchase a vehicle?

eyy mate i own a r33 gtst fairly stock but has a 4 inch exhaust running all the way through.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
