i have a 1998 semiauto r34 gtt. with intercooler, airfilter, BOV .and i drive it normally.but it just can keep going for about 280 km with a full tank.

i use #98 petrol, and fill in about 48 liters to make it full when the indicator tells me there was few petrol. is the fuel tank of gtt 50L ? i just want know a normal situation of the gtt's fuel consumption thanks a lot.

its all in how u drive the car keep it off boost and u will do fine. i have a r32 gtst with fmic dump pipie full exhaust stock cat uped boost pod filter. and i get 450 to 500 normaly but when i give it some i get bout 300 to 350 and thats not even on empty.

GTT tank is 65L. If you used 48L to top up then you have approximately another 17L left. 280kms to 48L is still pretty rich. I just filled up my tank today with 47L after having done 360kms.

The usual culprits are O2 sensor, spark plugs, AFM...perhaps take it for a tune and service.

NISMO is right, the tank is about 65L. I'll normally get about 400kms region to a full tank. I don't run it till the lights come out though. Got a 3" turbo back, fmic, pod, ssqv, boost at 12psi, foot is a little heavy at times :nyaanyaa:. Really depends on how you drive.

changing the o2 sensor will help, changed mine and i went from 300km a tank to about 430km tank.

This sounds more like it. I have a s2 stagea (r34 engine, gearbox), which is quite a bit heavier than a skyine and on 48L my car will get over 400km around town. Its got 160awkw too so its not stock either.

My guess is that you should at least be getting more than 350km on this amount of fuel, modified or not. If its doing less than that, you need to either adjust your driving style or look for whats causing the problem - eg. check your O2 sensor. :D

A good free-flowing exhaust, SAFC or similar, and improved ignition timing will help your fuel economy as well, not to mention a bigger turbo (off boost while cruising). :D

As others have previously mentioned, the fuel capacity is 65L so try pumping it as much as possible. Reducing the use of boost should help acheive more k's. If not u better get it checked out.

my 2c worth

the following could be causing it too

Dirty air filter - causing the motor to work harder than it needs to , cause its not getting the airflow it needs

Slightly too thick oil - are you using the correct grade of oil in it ? I mistakingly used some stuff that was too thick in another car I had - and I did notice a drop in economy

change the o2 sensor as previously advised

have you ever had the car on a dyno? the dyno readout of AFR can definately tell you a LOT about what your motor is doing. I think if you were chasing the most kays per tank .. an after market ecu or a few add in mods like a SAFC and a SITC ( I think thats the one that controls engine timing )

if you got the above fitted . and spent some time and money on a dyno tune.. you would probably get more power and use less fuel. dont forget if a motor is running really really rich .. then its safe.. but .. its just pissing fuel out the tail pipe , leaning the mix to a leaner (yet still safe ) will yeild more power and less fuel consumption - but dont fall into the trap though of getting a bit more power and driving like a maniac - cause of course your goign to use more fuel

good luck matey!

if you can afford it run with a good fuel like BP ultimate 98 - just less chance of it pinging/detonating if you push it hard.

Oh and .. have a look around .. because you can find " equivalent " o2 sensors that are usually less expensive. To be honest I am not 100% certain if the equivalent o2 sensor will be " just as good" as a geniune one. But its worth a go.

Make sure you get some good crimp connectors to join it up , as my previous experience with this proved that the wires they use on o2 sensors are impossible to solder ( I think they are stainless? )

thanks everyone .now i think i catch the key point.

another question : which grade of petrol should the gtt fill? #98?

As this had been covered many many times, anything just 98 Octane will be just fine. Be it BP Ultimate, Caltex Vortex 98, Shell V-Power, V-power Racing, Mobil Synergy, they are all fine. Just a personal preference on which 'BRAND' one prefer.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
