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 :)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
