340awkw i get 200km/tank flat.. no boost..

Dude I thought my car was bad. I can understand if you're on constant boost. Are you sure all the usual culprits have been tested? O2 sensor, oil filter, injectors, fuel filter, AFR, you're not leaving the handbrake on :(?

I'm curious whats the consumption like for those 1000hp cars... hahaha.

There's a reason those cars need 200L/hr fuel pumps :cool:

lol everythin is workin fine.. its partially my choice.. lol told the tuner no compromise.. haha but its city driving tho.. not highway :) only part i sacrifices was top end power for mid range :banana:

18L/100km... thats shit! But I suppose if you're running high hp, you can justify that.
lol terrible... i have about the same power as you and last tank got 420km.

Before the tune it was doing about 500km per tank, so extra 100kw in the tune and only lost 80km per tank, pretty good.

:banana:

280rwkw here, 450-500 CBD style driving, 600-650 freeway. I don't expect that to change with 330rwkw, because if you are just crusing around power output should make zero difference.

My fuel filler cap literally leaks when going around tight corners, so im probably losing a litre or two each tankas well (i can see it pouring out lol).

So I could probably get more if i wanted... I'll be doing a Syd run in Feb/Mar so ill find out exactly what i can do provided i don't get to excited on the way up hehe

Oh, and im not using O2 sensors either.

Big difference between no compromise tune and one that is just crap.

And honestly, you can have perfectly good power level/response and reasonable economy @ the same time.

200km's is 50 1/4. Fk that... You win the worst tune award - i'd be taking it back.

Something must be wrong then with my 33.

its even a sedan and its only reaching 360 a tank.. and its stock like a rock. ive had the o2 sesonsor and everything checked i still can not find a reason to why it would be doing this...

ive got an r34 gtr and think the fuel consumption isnt that bad, i dont have exact figures because i tend to fill up whenever i feel like so sometimes when i have a quarter of a tank or other times a little less. it seems to only use a little bit more than my old r34 gtt. and i know the fuel consumption can definately be better it runs very rich. id say i would get roughly from just adding up the km in my head and from when i filled it up till now because ive only been to work and back plus this is in stop start traffic ive traveled roughly 300-350km and still have a quarter of a tank left.

ps. thats still giving it a squirt here and there.

Doesnt matter mate. Just reset your meter when you fill up and note how much you travel and top up the next time. You'll be able to work out a L/100km or km/L consumption easily.

A tank consumption isnt always accurate because you dont know how much L you've used, unless you run it till it stop.

finally got figures for my r34 gtr, driving was a mixture of everything: stop start traffic, freeway and of course giving it a squirt here and there. all it has is a catback exhaust and my average is 14.1L/100km, if i kept going i could of easily gone 400km to a tank.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).

      ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.

      OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
