hey im a newbie and im an thinking about a skyline for my nect car. i have checked out pricing for services and insurance and found i can afford it.

The only thing i am a bit worried about is the fuel. i will be buyin a stock turbo skyline or maybe one a bit modified and just want to know how much its going to cost in fuel.

Just wondering how much u guys spend on fuel a week and how many ks it gets you. i will baby her a little but also once a week usually when i cruise i will give her a bit i would say. but any threads would be helpful. thanks.

depends on the individual car. theres plenty of threads about fuel consumption on here man. do a search and you'll find in better info. but some get 250km's to a 60ltr tank and others get 500km's. just depends on the condition of the car and things like 02sensor, ecu blah blah blah. i get bout 400-450kms. and i dont always drive her easy.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
