hahahah

yep sounds fine to me :P

do you drive a lot? regularly fill up once a week? or do you rarely actually fill it, just put in a bit every now and then?

the fuel guage can be a bit finicky if you don't fill it often. Don't know why, maybe something dries out and doesn't work as it should. But i reckon just keep the car topped up for a few weeks and see how you go, guage might come back to life.

Hey guys,

What i meant was...

Before I filled up my car with petrol, my gauge was sitting on Empty, with the petrol light on.

I filled up my car with petty and to my amazement It only took 52 ltrs of petrol..

Could this mean that I had 8 ltrs still in there or is the tank a 50 ltr tank?

Cheers,

Nick

Hey bud,

Did you go to top up at the bowser as soon as the yellow/amber fuel light came on? If so that could explain why it only took 52 L in, i've managed to squeeze around 100 kms on empy before chickening out to go fill up

Spec sheets indicate that R34 25GT and GT-t variants have a 65 L capacity

hope that helps

brilliant,

Cheers for you help! Good to know that I dont need to worry about the yellow light.. well not for a while anyways :D

Cheers,

Nick

spec sheets say that it is a 65 l tank but i have never filled more than 59l this one time i literally ran out of petrol as i rolled down a hill to a servo and it was dead and empt and it only took 59l

talking about close call !

Agreed, i have always suspected that it was a 60L tank rather than a 65L one,

However, referring to running on the empty light, having an after market fuel pump such as a Bosch 044 or 040 system will dramatically decrease the reliability of running the tank's ability completely empty so bear that in mind when your fuel light comes on

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
