  1. sorry using my mates logins as mine weren't allow me to post with it. I have a series 2 gtst running 12 pound, with front mount, and exhaust, pod etc nothing fancy. It's put out 206 rwkw on a dyno - not a gts4 - sorry bout the mix up. i'll try these things and see how i go. that point you made about an aftermarket ecu being there makes sense also. how can i check this out to see if it is an aftermarket ecu? if it is, should i change it back to a stock one to allow the car to run at factory setting or would the factory ecu setting not comply with the aftermarket enahncements that have been done? p.s i've only owned the car for 4 days and haven't owned a turbo before hence my lack of knowledge

  2. sweet guys thanks for the help... didn't know about the o2 sensor being only for highway driving... i mainly do city driving do this tells me that the o2 sensor may not be the problem. Am i right in assuming this? You guys reckon just give it a sweet service and change plugs and clean air flow meter and this should improve it somewhat?

  3. I think the O2 sensor can cost upto $100 (approx), my mechanic changed both of mine and a few other things so I spent abour $300+. I gota check my invoices.

    I would just get a new one and your mechanic should be able to sort it all out for you.

    Cool!

    yeah all sweet.... sounds good to me, the other thing is, we all know when it comes to cars it could be an abundance of things that can cause the same problem in a motor. what are some other things to keep in mind if the o2 sensor is fine? any other hints in what can make it run leaner.

  4. The O2 Sensor's job is to make sure the car is not running to lean, too rich. If its faulty then the car might be using more fuel then it should.

    If it needs replacing, change it and should help out your fuel consumption.

    Also put in a can of injector cleaner and check out your spark plugs and tyre pressure.

    cheers mate, appreciate the feedback. any hints on where to get the o2 sensor from? no doubt it'd be better to get a brand new one rather than second hand

  5. Hey Guys,

    Just wondering if anyone can give us a hand with my 33 series 2 goin' through petrol like crazy. Only getting bout 280 to the tank without driving it that hard at all.

    It's running 12 psi, Front mount, Exhaust nothing too flash. Just seems a bit to rich compared to what i've heard from other guys with the same basic setup.

    I've heard that changing to o2 sensor will help the situation - is this the case?

    If anyone can give us a hand in trying to get my car running leaner or knows anywhere around sydney that can sort it out for me, it'd be greatly appreciated.

  6. iv been thinkin bout this 1 for a while. im tempted to try do it. i recon you could hide it with a custom low mount manifold. mate of mine is on his red p's and has a vl turbo n he jus snapped the bonnet release cable an put another 1 in the glovebox. works a treat jus gets defected for the bonnet cable but nothin an extra 50 cant fix.
