Unless you have an oiled AFM, cleaning the afm isn't going to do shiet.

Has any 1 had the EL Ford O2 sensor on for around 1 year and still getting silimiar consumption?

I spoke a NGK techy over a year ago now and he said to me that the Ford O2 sensor will work at first however it will die relatively quickly as the Ford O2 sensor is not designed for a turbo application hence the extra heat is what kills it.?!?!?!?!?!

And i thought my feul consumption was bad at 10.5-11.0L/100km. On the last trip i done (which included a caning at the destination) i got 588km's from 54L. All this in a R31 GTS-X with a R32 RB20DET and ECU, 3" exhaust and a custom front mount. Also aren't the R31's heavier? Having owned a few V8's before i can't belive the economy when giving the car a thrashing as on a V8 the feul guage moves with the tacho.

Around the city my old VS v8 Manual used to suck the juice if giving it a hard time (320km's Per tank) if driving easy it would get around 400-450km's per tank (70L Tank).

On the open road (driving interstate) though it was unreal, I would clock just over 700km's to a tank of juice. Still it is a 70L tank so it would come up level with the line I think.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
