Alright Guys,

I would really like to narrow this down for the benefit of all.

Are there ANY series 1 gtst owners out there getting over 400km per tank?

Lets do a quick survey:

- What petrol are you using;

- What mods (if any) and be specific (an exhaust mod can range from cat-back to muffler...);

- Have you reset your ecu since you got the car

- How many kms the car has done when you bought it (or now if ya cant remember)

- I think the boost guage is in a series 1 - what does it read when you hammer the car - 4-5500rpm

- Idle speed when cold, then when warm

That's all I can think of at the moment, when we have a few answers, I will draft up a table and whack it on my website so we can see in a table or something, some similarities.

Here are my answers:

1. BP Ultimate (am on 4th tank in a row now)

2. From what I can tell - only the exhaust system was changed to fit compliance. I did notice that my ecu does not have any LED system on it for Diag mode (?)

3. The second night I got it, disconnected the battery, pumped the brake 6 times

4. 85500 (close)

5. When 4000rpm+ it hits the first bar between 0 and +7. At 5500 and up it goes another quarter to be between the first bar and +7

6. When cold - 1100, warm - 850ish...

srb33 , get your car tuned if you have a pfc or a chip .

if you got a stock ecu not much you can do .

i have a s 1 r33 gtr with pfc and n1 turbos and i get up to 500 k driving around sydney , at least 450 k but i fill up when the red light comes on about 60 -62 lt .

the car runs 11.7 @120 mph and i dont drive like an old woman on a trip i get better .

when i bought the car with stock turbos and stock ecu ( turbo back exhaust ) best i could do was 350 -380k . a good tune not only gives you more power but better fuel economy as well .

i use shell optimax .

- Car - S1 GTS4 (NA)

- BP Ultimate

- Cat back exhaust + Pod Filter

- Yes - Have reset stock ecu

- 65000 KM when I got it, 80,000 KM now

- No boost guage!

- Cant remember idle speed exactly, but normal

- Currently getting about 20L/100KM :S.. Was going to replace O2 Sensor on weekend, but will do next weekend

Cheers :)

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
