High fuel prices give me more reasons to get a Nistune system for my baby. She runs SO rich, you can hear the big pop (and probably see flames) every time it changes gear while giving her a bit.

350-400km out of a tank currently, I should be getting better fuel economy then roughly 16L/100KM even with my lead foot.

Pretty much. 400km out of a tank is about average for a Skyline I think. You won't get much better than that. Fuel economy is overrated anyways :thumbsup:

Lol at economy - what economy!! :whistling:

Yeah just put the neo turbo on, all is good. It's pretty much a case of needing money elsewhere in my life at the moment. I'm sick of constantly wanting to buy new and better parts for my car, and as long as I have it that will always be the case.

I wanna get back into music in a big way which unforunately like most things is going to cost a little. Also wanna start looking at having money for a house deposit etc in the next year or two so this is kind of the first step towards that I guess.

Shhhh, no telling me my economy is normal! If I continue to think it's too high and running really rich I can convince myself that a new ECU is a sensible thing to do, as opposed to a fun thing I want :P

11-12 for me, I'm going to get a nistune once some slacker buys my Cefiro.

Yo Two cents, does ol mate at the Ice-cream meet want to make an offer?

im between 380 to 430 out of a tank with the light on .....

how far do you reckon the 34 would go with the light on? lol

my best trip in the GTR was 466km from 39L, This included some quick trips up and down the summit of the bunyas. After i realised i have kick ass ecconomy I stopped calculating it :P

Don't think he would be buying for a while yet, + i think he's pretty set on an r31 :/ Will talk to him tomorrow.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
