I put in $40 last week on wednesday, and i have gotten 320kms out of the tank and i have just under a 1/4 of it left, giving it a thrashing maybe 5times odd a day...

Pretty good, considering i only put unleaded in too... Then again im NA

However i used to only get 220-230kms MAX out of a tank when running premium, until i changed my o2 sensor.

I found Shell Optimax gives better economy then BP Ultimate does. I'm happily using that now, it's right next to where i work so it's convenient too.

are you serious i am the opposite i cant stand opticrapz was crap in the pulsar and crap in the skyline... my cars just dont seem to like the stuff.

I didn't notice any difference. It used to make the exhaust smell but it doesn't anymore. I've heard people say that BP Ultimate and Optimax often comes from the same refinery and they just put in different additives. Either way, i'm not having any problems with it

i found that both cars got around about 20 - 40 kms less with similar driving with both ultimate and opticrapz. Also it may just be in my head by the skyline also doesnt feel as though it has as much power with opticrapz could just be me and probably is but meh i go with what makes me and the car happy :(

i just filled up after doing 430k's and got 50l's in it..  

so should i still have 10l's left in the tank?  

seems like i got a few k's outta 50l's when iv had a few drags and given it a bit the last few days

yea thats pretty good i generally get about 410 - 430 off of 48 - 53 litres and i am happy with that. also yes that does mean you have another 10L's left. I can drive around with the orange light on for a good 50 - 60kms and still only be at 55 - 58L

Orange light? Why dont I have an orange light?

lol either

1 - you are not running it low enough how many L's do you normally put in stevie.

2 - your fuel level gauge may be broken. I am not sure exactly which light it is on the cluster but its one of the ones on the left hand side. just go look during the day and you will know which one should light up

Should be near the "E" of the gauge, just out of the sweep of the needle

Well i've run it down pretty low! I bet the warning light has just blown or something pathetic like that. I want a warning light!

I usually put in about 50. And thats when the gauge is reading very empty. I know its a 60L tank so maybe my gauge is reading it empty ten litres to early??? I dont know...

i'm only getting 360km out of a 60L tank.

Term, I've found out that my Stagea goes through the petrol with short trips and city driving. But on the highway it's fine.

I think it's cause of the auto box and short trips when cold (cold = rich).

I wonder if you could put gas on one of these.. lol

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
