Hi guy's

Just want to know what the popping sound might be that seems to come from the exhaust when I deaccelerate??

Also I replaced my O2 sensor and my fuel consumption is still horrid.

[jager]

could be shitty fuel? do u use premium?

also could be the way the car is tuned

It's normal.

Not enough back pressure?? I had a straight through 3" system off the turbo to a cannon exhaust and it was terrible, so I got a 3" hotdog resonator fitted and that has fixed it a little. What exhaust set up do you have??

[Amaru]

as abo bob said its normal, its a turbo car, they run rich to protect themselves a bit (better than leaning out) and as a result, the fuel will burn in the exhaust causing the pops.

This is an ongoing concern with the RB -

look up 'snap, crackle, pop' in search or try mine:

Define horrid consumption?

Something like 250-300km per tank is pretty horrid.

That is horrid, 250-300 km (once I got 350 and that was low revs all the way). Do you have any idea how painful it is to drive for soo long without a decent squirt? thats what I get. I will not go into it because I have gone through all the threads on fuel consumption and the only thing I got out of it was O2 sensor, done that. Filled in 20 litres and got a return of 117km.

Anybody with experience in solving this problem please send me a PM.

I am on the verge in investing in a tune, but what can that achieve?? It's a standard computer. I have put off increasing boost because I want to fix this problem, and I reckon it's not fair that a lot of you get 450-500 km with mods!

mmmm.......let's say 20 litres = about $20.00 (expensomax fuel).

I get 120km per $20.00 (city driving)on expensomax fuel!!!!!

(and I'm 'happy' with that... (i don't drive unsafely, but I don't exactly drive like a poofter)..........it is an R33 with a wizza!!!)

You're doing ok...maybe just lighten the right one a little??

Mark.

PS. SRB 33.......sometimes it's smarter to take 'reports' (like other's fuel consumption), with a grain of salt (?)
