Hi All,

Just wondering if the R34 Neo RB25DET fuel consumption is similiar to that of the R33 RB25DET? Better or Worse? just wondering if the VVT side of things made any difference? My r33 gtst was getting about 380-400kms tank (no thrashing mainly highway driving).

thanks.

I get similar economy from my r34 gtt, about 400k to a tank. 400k divided by 50 liters = 12.5 liters per hundred ks. thats freeway and city driving. A bit of boost every now and then, if i nursed to over a whole tank i think id get 450ish.

I have a pretty heavy right foot & I'll still get about 320-350k's before the light comes on

light bolt on mods at the moment, pod, fmic, full exhaust etc.

Once I get my Power FC installed & tuned I should see improvement in the fuel economy with a good tune

Edited by Yo-Yo

my light usually comes on around 10 or 15 litre left in tank

and R34 tank is 60litre

50 litre is may be after light comes on

im doing around 13 or 14litre per 100km

before clean the injector i had 16 or 17 litre per 100km

been improved after injectors

and i bought SAFC and waiting to be install and tune

100% city driving no highway.. may be around 5km hightway from artarmon to city (gorehill freeway)

im happy now but i was expect 11 or 12litre per 100

i hope i achive that rate after SAFC!

recently ive got 370 untill lights come up

im not sure it has really 15 litre left after lights up but if it does real.. i might go around 400 to 450litre per tank.

i usally fill the fuel straight away after lights up. thats about 50litre. so it goes around 360 to 370 per 50litre... so it could be 13 to 14 litre per 100km..

its normal right?

does boost controller makes your car richer? im going to fit boost controller and SAFC and tune them on dyno.. the BC is manual one that forum had big thread about it. turbo tech one lol

anyway would it get richer or if i tune on dyno would i get leaner?

cheers

I've got a stock GTT Sedan apart from coilovers and i drive from epping to erina (just past gosford, central coast nsw) 5 days a week and do a little city driving on the other days - do cruises often thru what i call boosty roads and occassionally within legal constraints give the turbo a good wackin and i manage to get 10l/100km. Around 500km b4 the gauge reaches 1/4 of a tank and then i fill up with about 48-53 litres.

I'm getting 11-12L/100K's out of mine. (ive only filled up 3 times though so we'll see how consistent that is in a month or so) Mostly highway driving but regularly on boost otherwise.

R34 tank is 66L just for the record..

I get about 300-350 a tank.. I worked out if you refill her before half tank u get more bang for your buck .. launching it or not.. ended up with about 75-100km more than running a full tank down.

Used to get about 400-450km per 50L-55L. I found the light in mine was really cautious, ie when it came on I could still drive at least another 50km. That was with 200rwkw and tuned PFC, mix of street and highway driving.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
