Try writing in English and measure your fuel consumption in litres per 100km.

I'll get less than 200 ks out of a full tank and that's not even driving it hard

Take the coils out and give them a good clean and spray or wrap them with insulating material. Unless the plugs look new replace them and gap down to 0.8mm. Replace air filter clean AFM and if you have the means check timing. After that if you have a friendly workshop get them to check your AFRs.

^^^ what he said, kms per tank is useless.

I'm getting around 16l/100km and 11 on the freeway at 275 rwkw.

Check your O2 sensor they're known to cause high fuel consumption if buggered. Kudos sell new ones.

That's my line. Transpose with Evo ofcoars

 

If fuel economy is your thing......I think a moped or a Prius is more befitting!!!

Efficiency is a different animal.  I get 9.6 litres/100km on a trip at 300rwkw.  That was measured twice, once to the GC and back, and another time to Mt Gambier and back. I have no idea what I get around town, somewhere south......deep south probably, but who cares, town is town.

At the moment, a single tank has lasted for two months.....waiting for a part from japan before I can use it again :D

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
