im getting around 250k per tank in my r32...thats utterly ****ed. Any1 have ideas as to why? Thats with not giving it at all, changing gears at 2500/3000rpm. Ive got a remapped ecu, and the AFR is around 10.3 all the way thru the rev range, so its abit rich...but would it make that much of a difference?

Get your oxygen sensors checked... they may be dead... thus leading to overly rich mixtures. It's a prob I'm going through right now as well... just haven't had the spare cash to get the O2 replaced.

Currently getting 250 km's when the right foot is heavy.. yuck... 320 km's @ absolute most shifting so early the turbo goes to sleep...

Anybody know how much an O2 sensor should cost?

i gotta stockish r33, 3" exhaust with pod, get bout 450 from a tank with givin it a bit of shtick here and there, also i would like to add i get a few more k's out of bp ultimate than i do from optimax, and better performance, maybe thats a pointer too?

could just be paranoid delusions also

I recently got ~50 less kays to a tank on low boost (10psi) with BP 98 fuel than I do on high boost (16psi) with Mobil 98 fuel.

For some reason my car doesn't like BP fuel as it feels flat in the mid when coming on boost and slightly hesitates.

Mobil definately feels a lot snappier.

I have kept a record of every drop of fuel I have put in my car for the last 6 months and how many k's i am getting. I will make a new thread with the results after a few more mods so people can get some idea what to expect.

I started stock, then added 3 inch dump pipe and hi flow cat, then pod filter. next is a PowerFC which I am sure will make a big difference to my mileage.

I have not added up any results yet but will be interesting to see. Will keep u posted, just as soon as i get the PowerFC.

i keep a close watch on my consumption as well.

Its pretty damn bad! With at least 90% heavy city driving(i live in the city so theres a million sets of lights to get anywhere :P ) i get 300-320ksMAX from 50 litres. SO that works out to be minimum of around 16.5l/100km

on the freeway i can get between 400-500kms out of a tank (depending on the average speed more than anything else) so thats around 10-13l/100km

so yeah ive found consumption really depends on how and where you drive.

Edit: car is very close to stock.

When I was still driving auto R33, was pretty bad on fuel consumption, city driving could be about 15L/100km. The best is 13L/100km. Hwy cruising is average 11L/100km.

Now I drive manual R33, found fuel consumption is a tad better, with city driving around 13L/100km, but hwy cruising does not differ much from auto's 11L/100km, the manual is slightly better at 10.5L/100km...

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
