My car is a 96 model series II Skyline R33 GTS25t, the car is stock as rock. I had recently started only filling 20 liter petrol each time and I usually got around 10 to 11 L per 100km.

I personally think that for a old turbo car with 250ps, 10L/100km is quite good?

If you also drive a R33, can you share with us the car's fuel consumption please.

Hey mate, first of all how did you get those figures?

The best way is to fill your car up, drive around. Fill the tank back up taking note of km's driven then: litres put back into tank / km * 100

My fairly standard R34 GTT which is never driven in peak hour traffic averages around 12.5L/100km.

Your figure of 10-11 sounds insanely good, i would believe it if your car was explicitly driven on highways.

A few months ago i took my car to the great ocean road (350km trip) and i averaged 10.8L/100km which i was impressed with.

I think you'll find most 'normal' R33 gts-t's and drivers average 12-13L. When you start being aggressive with the right foot, expect figures of 14-16L/100km

i get roughly 9.5 ish L per hundred kms, half highway half start stop

on the highway i can knock it down to just under 8L per 100 kms

thats what i had when i got the car, still getting the same right now with

3071r, 620 cc highflow injectors, and 250 rwkw.

but when i put my foot down---------> =[

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
