I set my trip meter to zero I put in a full tank. When I filled it up next it took 42 liters and did 410km's. So that works out to 10.3 liters/100km. It supprised me cause I did a fair bit of spritied dirving.

Whats a R32's fuel tank size? 60l?

Thats like 580 km off one tank if I drove all the way to empty. Probably get to 540 -550 before the light comes on. Car is stock except for the cat back exhaust.

my DR30 gets almost 450kms out of it on a good run.

when i put petrol in i usually put in $50 to keep it round, but with these petrol prices $50 is not filling as much as it used to (duh). turn the car on and there's a noticeable difference in where the needle used to get up to and where the needle gets to now.

it's a 60L tank i think. unsure.

yeah a RB20 is 60l, the most i got was 470, havnt risked it to get up to 500

I just filled up yesterday after a weekend of country driving. 470km's and the fuel needle was sitting just under 1/4. I went to fill it up expecting to put in 50 liters or so... 42.5 L :D

Thats like 9L/100km... I could have made it to 600km at that rate. For a car thats done 150k Km's, its a fuel efficiency beast :laugh:

my stocker car has been having some probs recently. Used to go about 10k/litre.now it does about 400km/50litres. I think my afm or something is stuffed. Runs wayyy tooo rich. Ocassionally loves to hunt too. Need to find out the prob soon, but i don't drive the car much so i don't feel it as much. Oh wells.

p/s: anyone got any idea to my prob? I searched around and came up with, O2 sensor, AFM(which i already cleaned with contact cleaner), The thing at the end of the plenum.. what's it called again? LoL. Those are the 3 things.

the amount you get out of a tank depends alot on how you drive it

and if you have the windows down or the aircon on

having the windows down decreases the aerodynamics of the vehicle and results in poor economy

i can get about 450km around town on a tank in my 33 with the windows up and not giving it much shit

unfortunately i can hear alot fuel not being exploded in the engine but in the exhaust

i wish i had an RB20DET in there.

mine's an FJ20DET, my engine goes way back but it's only done just over 160,000kms.

afm's been a bit of a worry lately so once that's fixed (tuesday) then hopefully it'll run a bit better.

Average 430km or so for 60lt in my GTR (N1 turbos/bigger injectors/fuel pump/PFC Djetro/1.5bar of boost etc)

Used to get about the same in my old GTR (stock)

My HR31 was awesome averaging 11l/100km around town and even better on the country hauls. Wish i still had that sort of economy.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
