250kms if I am lucky..

PULP and Octane Booster. No access to 98, so I run BP PULP and I used Nulon Pro Strength Octane Booster as insurance as our fuel is not the best up here. Tuned on PULP..

Worst tank 165kms

Best tank 330kms

Most fun tank was definitely the 165km tank..

i used to get about 300km/tank

i put some wynns injector cleaner in a few weeks ago, and it got 400km, and have had consistantly over 350km since :O

anyone know any ways to stop the stock ecu running so damn rich?

i cleaned my car last week, used about 2 tanks of fuel on the weekend, and have a MASSIVE fuel stain on the back already.

i can hold my hand to the exhaust, and i get black dots on it!

safc II help perhaps?

My car gets similar economy to Gazza750's...R32 GTR, most km's i've ever had to a tank was 480, driving only in metro area. Usually get around 450 - 460. I run 0.9 bar of boost and i've worked out that with the mines rom, my car likes a bit of a poke for the first 1/4 to 1/3 of a tank as it seems to burn more efficiently or something. After that I drive it pretty tame, as the tune is very rich. High speed really chews through the juice - even just a short stint :P If I incorporate a cruise, i'll be lucky to make 400km to the tank.

Car is my daily driver. If I fill up once the empty light is on, i'm looking at $85 - $90 for medium priced Ultimate 98 (I find the price ranges between 1.41 and 1.51 p/l). I get through that in less than a week. Car has a few nice mods but is relatively stock.

Not sure if the tank is bigger but I got roughly 550kms with 1/8 of a tank left on a run from Kalgoorlie back to Perth... Forgot to add, that was doing 120km p/h majority of the drive..

She doesn't like city driving, seems to chew threw it pretty quick!!

Most I have got is 520 kms driving like an old man around town while I was still living in Sydney, but on a long haul I sneak up to 580 + Kms....

Track day at Eastern Creek = 170 or so Kms...

Driving around town normally 480 +kms

Driving around with a bit of gusto 350-ish

That is all

Mike

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
