YEs ^^^

Funny story, back in the 70's my old man had a XW falcon ute with a 302 in it (bought it brand new in 1969)

all his mates went and bought datsun utes etc due to rising fuel costs, they were stoked at getting 16mpg...my old man laughed because his 4.9L V8 was getting 22mpg around town lugging a shit load of tools around the place

  • 1 month later...
  • 3 weeks later...

Its just that the the lowest I can get my auto down is 10.5L/100km & that is making a 430km trip doing about 110 - 120km/h (mostly) the whole way. & then I read people claiming that they get ~8L/100km doing mostly freeways (I assume it would be manual).

In the city mixed driving I can never get it below 12L/100km (always hover around 13.5L/100km)...

& now with mainly bumper to bumper traffic it shoots up to 16.5L/100km.

Car has the usual bolt ons (exhuast, intake, bleed valve to 10PSI) & a basic tune with SAFC 2.

I got a app on my phone where I enter details when I fill up like how much/mileage etc so it calcutes all sorts of averages by its self which is neat.

Anyway after about a year of owning a RB25DE R32 it says I get 11.19L/100k.

But dang I find the engine quite hungy once I drive a bit more heavy footed, especially when in a rush.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
