Yous all suck if you're getting under 400kms to a tank in a non-GTR.

I just did 463km, with 315kms of that of spirited run to Bathurst and back.

Why should a GTR be more fuel hungry?

My motors:

RB25, 270rwkw - 450-500km around town, 550-600 freeway

RB26, 280rwkw - 450-500km around town, 550-600 freeway

Identical :D

Pretty sure i have a 55L tank as well (never run it much below 1/4)

All of mine are with a nastier diff ratio as well, so I am doing high RPM @ 100km/h to you all :)

That said, if i get onto the loud pedal i can mince a tank in less than 300km's

am i the only one that doesnt check or work it out? i just go and fill up whenever i need to no matter what day it is, usually when i have about a quater of a tank left and thats it, i dont even look at the price when im filling up lol.

LOL +1.. always find vortex 98 for her and fill up once a week. its never been low so i never worry about it :)

I'm lucky if I get 350ks beween fills. And then it takes around 50Ls to fill it.

I'm wondering if a new o2 sensor will improve things, along with a Nistune and dyno time.

Once a week!!!!!

God damn. If I fill up 3 times a week it's been a cheap week.

Wish I was like that, but I'm obsessed with the trip meter haha. It can be a good way to tell if your car isn't running properly / as good as it could be. I do fill up whenever I need it though...stuff holding out for queues and cheap prices to save a couple of dollars. If you bought a Skyline for good fuel economy you did it wrong from the start I say!

Yer! Give the O2 sensor a go mate, it should be standard with every purchase of a Skyline haha! Instant 50-60km extra to a tank if it ain't been changed before.

Ummm.... ;)

BP Ultimate: 141.9c, 423.6km, 49.34 L = 11.65L/100km = $16.53/100km

BP Premium: 134.9c, 265.2km, 34.87 L = 13.15L/100km = $17.74/100km

BP Premiun: 134.9, 446.3km, 53.74L = 12.04L/100km = $16.24/100km

BP Ultimate: 140.7c, 476km, 51.12L = 10.74L/100km = $15.11/100km

Caltex Vortex: 143.9-4c = 139.9, 300km, 35.54L = 11.85L/100km = $16.57/100km

Sucks that BP Ultimate is currently the best, I want to boycott them bad. Going to move onto Mobil and Shell soon, hopefully they are awesome.

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
