Im currently in the process of selling my XR6 Turbo due to poor fuel consumption (18l/100km which usually gets me 320km from bowser to bowser) I have eyed a immaculate R32 GTR but before I make a commitment or a mistake, id love to hear members REAL experiences and figure regarding fuel consumption for the above model.

I have tried a few search variations but did not yield anything useful,

Cheers,

my tuned R32 GTR gets around 20-23 l/100 depending on the driving condtions. it's probably at the worse end of the scale though being not a stock car, and tuned quite rich too.

results on Ultimate 98, for a bolt-on equipped car

mainly city, light throttle = 300-350km on a tank

" " hard accel more frequently = ~250km

mainly highway, no boosting = 550+km (i reckon i could get well over 600 on a long drive at continuous speed)

hooning = very few km/tank :dry:

they'll never match a Yaris for economy, but like Steve said, it's hardly the point of a GT-R.

I get about 14.4l/100 in my R32 GTR around town and fairly enthusiastic country/mountain drives. only engine mods are Mines ECU and 3.5 exhaust. Never done a long highway run, but would expect alot better figures just cruising on the highway.

That sounds like very high fuel consumption for a XR6T.

My Stagea S2 (1658kg) gets around 13L/100 in the city and around 10L/100 on the highway and at the moment it isn't too far off the stock power for a XR6T. Also being AWD it has more losses through the drivetrain so if anything your fuel economy in the XR6T should be much better than mine, depending on mods of course.

Just another suggestion, by looking at a GTR are you infering that you no longer need a 4-door car?

If you'd prefer 4 doors you may consider a Stagea RS260 or 4-door skyline? Just thowing it out there... :mellow:

I was getting 550km+ with 75% hwy, some city, some mountain. Fairly standard with just exhaust and r34 turbos.

^^ Now the owner of said vehicle - I get around 400 KM/tank in the city if I drive it quietly. However if I boot it, which I have been known to do, it go's down pretty quickly.

But eco is not what a GTR is designed for.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
