I often Kramer it, and In my series 1 when the fuel is low the light comes on and it tries to stall around left hand corners! the most fuel it has ever taken is 63l allowing for a comfortable 2l. Best k's ever was about 580, average is about 300.

My car seems to like V power racing, finally no pinging!

:P I do that in my Van, because I hate filling it up during the day. I got like 560 out of it once, but like you said, it started cutting out

Can someone confirm if the fuel light turns on when in ingnition for a R32?

Mine doesn't light up and wondering if this was a feature added into r33+ :(

I have a 93 R32 GTS-T and the fuel light does not light up when turning on the ignition.

And incase you are wondering, the fuel light in my car does work because it came on today when i parked at work, i parked on the side of the road and the road dips a lot into the ditch so the car was on an angle and the light was on. When i pulled away after work the light wasnt on and the fuel gauge rose a bit again, but regardless it had done 500km so i knew it was time to fill up, but it took 51.5lts, so it wasnt terribly low!

holy shit. 525km on the trip meter, im lucky if i get 300km. i usually get around 280km. i cant believe it sorry mate it just amazed me to see someones skyline doin that. i got mates that get around 450 max, i got a bloody dud skyline i tell ya. it does like a bat out of hell but standard injectors and computer. dont know whats going on

That's pretty bad fuel consumption, something definately not right there!! I always get 10 - 11/lts per 100km and a lot of that is in busy traffic and when im not in traffic im often stretching its legs. Overall i dont drive it that hard but i certainly dont putter around! Has your consumption been like this since you got the car? Might be worth putting it on a dyno and checking the a/f ratio's etc...

It changes from orange to red >_<

I don't understand? are you saying it comes on orange when you are low, and if it gets lower then it goes red? i've only ever seen mine as an orange light.... But i have never let my fuel tank get really really low.

    • 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?

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
