Fuel economy... lol its small, but its something

im just wondering what sort of range everyone is getting in their NA's

Just copy and paste and fill in the blanks

Car:

Mods:

Driving style: (ie: granny, boy racer, soccer mum)

Driving conditions: (ie: city, highway etc)

Fuel brand: (ie: caltex 9X, BP 9X etc)

Ltr's for a full tank: (ie: how many litters does it usually take for you to fill right up)

KM's per tank: (ie: how many km's do you get per tank)

I think that's enough, if anyone else can think of anything else that would affect the economy throw it in.

A lot of us drive off boost often... mines turbo and i get 12L/100km so ~500km to a tank. Its all in how you drive it.

if you drive off boost all the time why dont you just by an na? no use owning a turbo unless you hit it

in my 1995 r33 gts i get 550kms out of 50 litres of fuel

has extractors, 2.5 inch cat back, pod

spirited driving

in my 96 gts-t i get 450kms out of 50 liters of fuel

has all the usual mods, fmic, full zorst, boost at 12psi, pod

spirited driving :banana:

i'd give up the little bit of fuel economy for the turbo anyday

Car: r33 series II

Mods: apexi n1 exhaust, apexi intake, iridium sparks

Driving style: granny + occasional burst

Driving conditions: surburban areas

Fuel brand: unleaded, but now using v-power

Ltr's for a full tank: 40-45L

KM's per tank: 400km

put it this way, how much power does your de 400/450kms per tank make? then ask the same of a det motor.

most skylines will make 400 to 450 kms per tank if it is nursed, but if thats all ya gonna do go buy a toyta echo. the turbo is there to make it fun.

Mods: RB30e - Stock SVD cam, Extractors + 2.5 Mandrel Bent exhaust

Ltr's for a full tank: 63L

KM's per tank: 700+

G/F just did a round trip to Sydney (~600 ks) 8.4L/100km acc. to the trip computer - which is highly accurate!

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
