Hey Fellas.

My R33 GTST is getting about 230Ks to the Tank... However big it is. Roughly 50Ltrs. The car has FMIC and is only running 10psi as only mods, and 19" rims.( not that it would matter).

I have read the forum of the R34 experiencing the same problems, but i am thinking different motor, different problems.

Any help or tips to rectify my fuel guzzling problem ????

Cheers Fellas.

Michael

If changing the O2 sensor would fix it, I would have included it.

For the 23,965,351st time, the ECU only responds to the O2 sensor at constant load / throttle. And there is very little of that in city driving. So changing the O2 sensor will have very little impact on fuel economy in city driving.

hey mate that is bad. my S2 has a pod, front mount, and zorst and i still get bout 500 from a tank. Is the car new to you or have you had it for a while?

As if its new for you i guarantee as said here already ease up on the old right foot (god knows i went through like 5 tanks of fuel in the first 2 weeks i had mine)

other than that service it if u dont know how long ago it was done. especially check for dirty airfilters and gunked up intakes had isue like this with previous cars you would be surprised the effect a dirty filter can cause after a while.

but im still gonna finnish by sayin ease up on the right foot :ninja:

Yer i will ease up.. and i probs should get it serviced as i dont know how long ago it was done.

Also, my mate who was driving behind me the other day, said that when i accelerated hard or harder than usual.. heaps of black shit was comming out of the exhaust. So maybe there is tooo much fuel goin into it. running way too rich??? dunno..

Its not oil, cos oil is blue smoke.

I wanna do a highway test to Brisbane from rocky. ABout 7hrs, but i am scared i will run out of fuel.

So yer about it running rich???

Cheers

    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together
