stock turbo/ecu with basic mods it really depends.

on the freeway between 9-11l/100km

on the open road with corners and hills about 13-14l/100km

in the city taking it easy around 15l/100km

in the city hooning about 20l/100km

so depends on driving really.

i hate it how people refer to how many kms per tank, because who knows what someone else means when they say a tank? do they mean 50L (when the light flashes) or do they mean a tank as in 65L

i always fill and reset odo then fill again and work out l/100km.

so assuming we refer to a tank as 50L i get anywhere between 250-500km per tank.

I'm with RyanN, when I fill up, the needle stays at past full for ages, maybe like 80-100kms before it decides to drop quickly very suddenly.

I avg 350kms cruising the suburbs. On holiday trips I get 400-430Km because of the long hwys (needle being just above Empty)

BTW I always reset my trip counter every time I fill up

i fillup every couple weeks usually by that time as soon i pull into the petrol station the light comes on while im waiting, once filled i reset the trip a soon as i get in the car. I dont know whats going on this week as i've used up a quarter already and i've only done about 60km, and thats driving like im driving miss daisy, sometimes i get good fuel economy (for my car atleast) some weeks i don't even though i drive the same, whats will the inconsistencies?!?!

my 32GTR gets 470km out of a tank before the fuel ligh comes on. Driving smoothly most of the time and using 5th gear over 60km/h

These have a 72 litre tank so atm it costs around $90+ to fill er up on 98.

If I get up it it'll all be over in around 300k's.

Damn, the governments is getting rich off us!!

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
