ok, i have 200rwkw rb25 and it uses 45/50 litres of fuel per 300km/s regardless of how me and the wifey drive it (it gets booted a bit, but mostly driving in traffic) before i get the tune checked out, i want to make sure theres nothing mechanical that could be causing the bad fuel economy (it was pretty bad before the powerfc install, 350ks per 50litres, so im not convinced its the tune entirely (it may be a part of the fault) what mechanical can cause bad fuel economy? the car currenlty has its charcoal cannister unhooked (im getting it rehooked up) the car also had a new throttle body (forward facing plenum) i believe its an 80ml ford jobby car also has a fmic and hks cam gears exhaust i want to go see my mechanic and give him things to check that can be causing such bad economy there is always a heavy fuel smell when reversing, and often i can see fumes coming out of the petrol tank cap dont see excessive smoke out the back, no black marks on rear bumper what else can i get my mechanic to check?

Spook's_Skyline replied to r34_skyline's topic in General Automotive Discussion

I guess QLD is getting pretty serious about speeding offenses. Two half decent offenses within 12months and you are pretty much gone!!!

1. What is an Additional Demerit Point Penalty? If a driver or motorbike rider commits two or more offences of exceeding the speed limit of more than 20 km/h within a 12 month period, in addition to the standard penalty that applies for each individual offence, the driver/rider will incur either an extra four, six or eight demerit points for the subsequent offence. The additional points will appear as a separate entry on a person's traffic history. This additional demerit point penalty is also referred to as double demerit points. 2. Who does the additional demerit point penalty apply to? The additional demerit point penalty will apply to drivers and motorbike riders who commit the following offences in Queensland: · Exceed the speed limit by at least 21km/h but not more than 30km/h – 4 demerit points; · Exceed the speed limit by at least 31km/h but not more than 40km/h – 6 demerit points; and · Exceed the speed limit by more than 40km/h – 8 demerit points Where a driver/rider commits more than one of these offences within a 12 month period, the person will accumulate double the amount of demerit points on their traffic history for the subsequent offence. The number of demerit points that will apply will be dependent upon the subsequent offence. Any of the above three offences can be considered a 'first offence' or 'subsequent or later offence' and do not need to be identical. For example, if a person commits an offence of speeding 31-40 km/h within 12 months of committing an offence of speeding 21-30 km/h, the second offence (that is, the 31-40 km/h offence) will incur an additional 6 demerit points. The additional demerit points are to apply to any subsequent offence committed within 12 months of a previous offence. In other words, for normal demerit point allocations for the above speeding offences to apply, a person must not have any offence involving speeding more than 20 km/h within the previous 12 months. The following table outlines a few different scenarios:
