Hi all,

Just need a quick heads up on anyone who owns or has owned an R32 GTR. Roughly how many kms do you get out of a tank (normal driving and hard driving, if you ever drive it normally, lol) and how many litres are the tanks?

Not going to say why just yet... but all shall be revealed in time.....

Andrew.

hi andrew, i think i met you at an open house a while ago, i think it was your parents house? i had a white 32gtr.

anyhoo, when i first bought my car i was happily getting 450k's from a tank. that's with a standard engine and a power fc, driven relatively sedately but often given a bit of poke if the driver in front is annoying me. unfortunately things have been going downhill lately and i'm lucky to get 350. dunno what's wrong but it's becoming a very expensive problem! and i've heard people getting as little as 250k's from a tank, on cars that have been more heavily modded than mine.

oh and the tank is 65 litres.

500?!! you are the luckiest man on this earth. without trying to hijack the thread, what petrol do you use? i use bp ultimate if i can, as it seems to make the car produce less black smoke.

500??? Holy shit I couldn't even get that when it was stock! Best I have ever got from my tank is 400....

My average is 350 - 380 from a 60 litre tank so unless my maths is bad (highly possible) I think that works out to be around 16 litres per 100ks.

When I'm bad it's 280-300... :P

I'm a BP Ultimate girl for the most part.

I guess it depends on what your idea of "driving it right" is :thumbsup:

I drive my car for fun and because I love it. Don't really give much of a toss bout economy but it's interesting to hear someone get so much out of a tank.

But from memory for the few times I've had it on the highway it's pretty good.... No worse than my old non turbo was.

An observation. The words "fuel", "economy" and "Nissan GT-R" should never be used in the same sentence...unless associated with the word "crap". I have a fuel miser car for everything else, I have a GT-R for driving in the truer sense of the word!

No you dont!

got 600km out of my tank on the way to melbourne. Thats to the fuel light came on, around 60L of fuel...

Not bad for a car making around 550hp at the crank. On wakie, i used a take in under 100kms. (inc the drive up)

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • 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
