Hey Nastazia...is the tank empty though...ie when you fill up how many litres can you squeeze in? Reason I say that is the fuel senders in the 33 can be a bit dodgy sometimes and give a false reading. Should definitely be getting more than 250km in a fairly stock skyline.

Well I mean, I've only ever let it run onto red light once in 6 months or so... so I never fill it up from scratch. If I granny drive ALL the time I will get about 280 but yea It's pretty sht seeing as I live in the Vines and do around 500 - 600km per week :D

Tell you what.... next time you fill up keep a check of the actual litres you put in......it is a better way of telling how far you have gone on how much fuel. On mine when it is reading 1/4 left I usually still have at least 30-35 litres :D

once i cleaned the AFM on my old 33 gtst i got 600-620 / tank!

in the GTR im lucky to get around 520-540 / tank

600-620!!!! man i think i might see if that works on mine, i useually get 400-500 from a tank and thats about a 50/50 mix of highway and city (with the more than occasional thrash) driving using vortex or mobil premium, long distance best i got was just under 10L to the 100

this is the thing though.... how many people really get a skyline from japan....change the O2 sensor, clean injectors, clean afm, perhaps clean throttle body...if we all kinda started from a similar starting point engine care wise...we could all be similar perhaps

i havent been through a tank on the 34 yet..but its looking to be about 450...but thats the first tank of heavy right foot driving..

^ The general answer would be yes, but all performance cars are on the rich side to be safe. From just one personal experience where I seen it first hand, I was behind Topaz when he put his foot down & he blew black smoke, I did as well and in my rear view I seen it as well (not letting a gtr get away easily now :)). If black smoke is coming out under normal acceleration, then you worry but otherwise for the type of car it's normal.

    • Jax Tyres Smithfeild Ive gone there a few time, well for tyres. on my 3rd visit I spoke to the dude and told how i just got slugged for rotors, brakes ect. His reply was golden; have you read whats on the front of the building. Never forgot it.       before picture, good friend got all these goodies installed.  Well time to study, servicing, maintenance all before this weekend driving lesson.  
    • Hello, first of, I’ve looked at many threads on this code but none have helped me, if you know one that will help me feel free to post a link.   Now to my problem. Recently I was driving and noticed the check engine light came on. I went home and did the test to see what code it gave. I got the 21 code but everything seems fine with the car, no misfire, idle is good, acceleration is the same as when I bought it. I mean no signs of obvious failure. If no misfire is happening I can rule out the coil packs right? Which is about 98% of posts saying it is. If anyone has had this happen and found the issues let me know please. No other lights are on.   The car WAS due for an oil change. I since then changed it so idk if that triggers code 21. Either way it hasn’t turned off.
    • Your both right, it may hold a bit longer then.  Soon I need to change the synchros, should I fit the billet plate while I'm at it? Or just a waste of money?
    • Some of the east coast US Stagea got together this past weekend at Lime Rock Park in CT for Grid Life Circuit Legends. This is probably my favorite pic of the shoot with @Morgan.Mundahl on IG. Hope we get more stags out next year! i think I spotted 5 other than my own at the event.
