Today im a proud owner of a r33 Skyline, went for my first fillup of BP ultimate and for some reason the car started leaking petrol during fillup from the nozzle hole! Now before anyone jumps to conclusions,

the tank was empty by the guage and i only put in 20ltrs cause its a thurs and fuel is $1.54!!!

Any ideas on why?

Hey all, new to the forum so first post.

Sorry to hijack a bit but didnt want to go creating a new thread. I also have just obtained an R33 and also just put in a tank of BP Ultimate. My question is, is the TERRIBLE fuel consumption im getting normal? I read on a link from these forums that it should get 9.8L per 100km. Well, I put in a full tank, set the tripmeter and it looks like ill get about 250km out of the tank (its nearly empty, filled it up tuesday)

Just wondering, Is that normal? I mean I know I shouldn't expect great ecconomy from a v6 Turbo but 250km's according to my math is 26L/100km Wtf?

ummm straight 6 turbo .

depending on your driving style and whether its city or country driving ..

std r33 gtst should see from 350-500 kms per tank..

o2 sensor on the exhaust would be main culprit other than thrashing the car

sorry straight 6. Used to saying v6 from my old car :P

newly complied ?

dodgy compliance change to the restricted unleaded nozzle hole on the filler pipe..

Yes just complied the other day, how does that affect the pump and make the fuel overflow?

and how do i check?

Thanks for the replies ppls btw

is your car stock, any engine work etc... if so maybe not tuned, but if its a stocka i think you might have a problem, try cleaning your injectors and the fuel tank might help a little

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
