Petrol Question For All R33 Owners!

[DIOR 33]

wow thats really bad i get 460 to a full tank and i drive normal and not so everynow and then and travel to muno and back all the time

i have a S2 with a 4" full system no cat or mid muffler and custom dump.

you should get that looked at

i used to use BP now i use mobil so what fuel you use

[adelaidebloke]

How many Km's do you'se guys get out of a full tank of petrol?

I get about 320-350 when I drive my car sensibly and dont drive lead footed

My car is fairly stock tho, appart from a cooler and 3 inch turbo back

Is this average, or whats going on here?

[Mayuri Krab]

about 450km out of a 4 speed auto; mostly granny driving with 70/30 city/freeway driving...

Except for a CAT, car is complete stock (even have the original air box )

[stook]

i get the same driving normaly about 300-350, even after a Dyno tune, BP ultimate fuel, never change, Its supposedly the best

[Boof R33]

i get around 380-440ish depending on the conditions

[nos man]

well my fuel sensor is weird! at the bottom half of the tank i get around 100km and the top half around 200-250km

[Boof R33]

mines on ultimate with cooler, exhaust and pod

[Sklyn]

I get 360-390 from a tank, mostly normal with a bit of spirited driving.

I just have pod & zaust. using BP ultimate.

Do a search, heaps of threads on this..

well my fuel sensor is weird! at the bottom half of the tank i get around 100km and the top half around 200-250km

mine used to do the same till i lost economy i used to got 200+ kms before the gauge started moving now its around the 125 mark

all up i can push 400 out of it fuel light comes on @ about 300ish i used to not get the fuel light even little past 350

[r33 chris]

350 max for me i got xhaust, cooler, 14psi boost, power fc ect

[dangerman4]

around 300 - 350 kays on v power

at 320 rwkws, 24 psi, daily driven

[Doobs]

I normally get 400k's.

Daily driven. Got FMIC catback 10psi stock airbox.

Never tuned and still haven't regapped plugs.

I always run V Power.

[(OO)Firty Free(OO)]

380-440 right foot dependant.

[mid life crisis]

series 1 auto cat back exaust /pod filter/fmic/10 pound boost can get 500 ks driving it sedatlly with the odd squirt or around 470 having some fun

[SLED]

very inaccurate way of checking fuel consumption guys cause if the gauge isn't reading correctly, you could still have 100km's left in the tank when the light comes on.

Fill up & zero your counter, fill up again when your light comes on then make note of your odometer & litres used and divide one into the other.

[mid life crisis]

thats how i work mine out sled checked it about 1/2 a dozen times since ive had the car about 3 1/2 yrs now

[Giveitall]

better suggested by SLED, using litres / km would be an more accurate indiction.

mines running 12.5L / 100km

using BP ultimate.

[typevu]

The past 3 fuel tank in the last week or so I've been getting about 450km out of the tank, and that is with hard hills driving included + boosting hard with each fill up! and when I fill up I still have something about 6-9L left. Using BP Ultimate, about 180rwkw untuned.

[Luciano]

I installed new coil packs just before i filled up the other night, and i reset the counter. I havent measured the amount of k's from a full tank for a few years now, and i've added a few mods to the car since i last measured it. i'll be interested to see if i can get over 350km's.

I think my stock ecu is making the engine run R&R - i get this massive creep of power after 5500rpm (the car literally throws me back in my seat); through the midrange its somewhat weaker. Not nice!

Need to do some investigating... The time for a powerfc and tune may be here...

[jonathon]

Hey crew,

I get roughtly 11-12L/100kms, and have even been in the 10s. Fuel per tank is about 500-550kms.

This is with 11psi, FMIC, Full exhaust, and a fairly heavy right foot when in the mood - frequently

I might be one of the lucky ones with my ECU by the sounds of things. Come to think of it, even with higher boost, I have never felt flatspot, or R&R, that is commonally mentioned.
