Hey yall...

I know theres a tread about his for the Turbo line. But wat are the N/A pips getting for theirs?

Cause at the moment i'm getting about 450km per tank full (is this bad?) and i drive like a granny, well 8 times out of 10 though. And i'm pumping in 95 RON not the 98 RON fuel by the way. So wat are other people getting?

Cheers.

450kms is about my average before the fuel light comes on.

on 95 ron too, sometimes 98, doesnt seem to make a big difference.

Im normally changing gears at about 4,000 so nothing too hard

But hey, fuel economy is second to the driving, would you trade your skyline for anything less?

Yea kool thats for the replies.

So 450km on average for a full tank is not bad, mmm yea darker i tend to change gears at around 4000rpm as well and mayb higher on some few occassions :).

So yea are some of ur lines modified? eg. zorst, aftermarket filter?

Cheers

Yeah, I get about 450km if I'm driving nicely.

I have been told that by replacing the o2 sensor after about 50,000 km helps improve the cars economy, thats if the car starts using more fuel or is running rich.

Mines got a 2 1/2" exhaust, extractors and K&N panel filter.

my all time average is 11.8L/100km. i got 513km from 58L on my last tank (running it on empty), which is 11.3L/100km.

i think that's not too bad considering i drive quite 'spiritedly'. i quite regularly rev to 6500rpm once it has warmed up and oil pressure has come down.

edit: i run bp ultimate or mobil synergy 8000.

modifications: extractors, hiflow cat, 2.5" exhaust from cat, pod filter

I used to get around 400 - 450 K's when i didnt worry about what sort of fuel I used. Now My best was 580 (Still trying for 600). If I drive the car really hard for the whole week I still get around 480! I only use BP Ultimate, It is by far the best I have found and I only go to servos which I know are really busy! They get more fuel more often... So Find one of those huge BP Sites and See how ya go! It worked for me. Definatly worth paying extra for it considering the gain in distance.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
