Haha yea that is a big LOL I'd put a brandnew

pod in and chnged the plugs and the oil

and oil filter plus the fuel filter still the same.

What else can I do?

250km per tank would actually = 26L/100km, as the R33 tank is 65L.

When you mean per tank, do you mean when the light comes on? or when the needle hits E?

Because if the light comes on, you still have 10-15L left in the tank....

you need to retard the modulation of the throttle lever.

Hold on, i think there is an important hint here we are ignoring...

(by the way i was calculating 60L, 5L remaining for pussying out and stopping at the nearest petrol station :()

I would replace the o2 sensor first. I gained a a bit by doing this yet alone an o2 sensor that has probably never been changed.

Factors such as agressive driving and heavy traffic will naturally kill fuel consumption.

I consistently average 12.5L/100km with the odd squirt of acceleration and well moving traffic.

wow 250km per tank, that makes my 330km per tank without the light feel beter. got many mods, had it tuned yet?

That's pretty much what I get.

I'm hoping and expecting a Nistune and dyno time to improve it somewhat.

I've done filter/plugs/oil.

Will check the o2 sensor.

wasn't o2 sensors mentioned before?
I would replace the o2 sensor first.
Then he found out the tank is leaking fuel out and also the o2 sensors are stuff!

Correct, correct, and correct.

RB25DET sees massive improvement by replacing the oxygen sensor. They don't last at all, so chuck in a new one every 80,000km or so. I netted an extra 100km or so per tank out of changing it. Even fanging your car everywhere should see more than 250km per tank.

    • 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
