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)

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
