Hi, I've owned my 1997 r33 gts-t for about 6 days now and I'm a little shocked by the fuel consumption. According to the specs (http://meggala.com/r33main1.html) it says 9.8L/100km. So far I've used 3/4 of a tank and done 335km and 300km's of that was done on the highway driving home from the dealer. The car is a fresh import and the only modifications are a blitz catback exhaust. I haven't flogged the car or taken off too quickly as it is my first turbo and have been abit cautious about it. I was just wondering what sorts of mileage are other people getting from their cars as according to my calculations so far I'm doing about 14.5L/100km.

Thanks

Matt

R34GTT stocky cept exhaust around 13.5/100 city though last tank with a fair amount of highway 9.6/100 , frikin amazed me , I now have a strong suspicion that the Caltex 98 I've been getting aint 98 all the time, actualy I'll go further and say most of the time , as my K's per hundred have been anything from 12/100 to 16/100 all city not much happy foot. :( .

Could be a sad 02 sensor though I don't think thats likely.

Welcome to a skyline lol

You come out with some of the most CRASS STUFF lol

Back to thread...

Lots of variables including...

i) plugs

ii) fill up with V-Power or Ultimate and then recheck

iii) AFR on dyno > yaddayadda

iv) state of tune

to name a few...

My GT-R uses between 12.1l/100Km (hwy) up to over 16 (mountainsides)

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
