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.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
