  1. yer, speedo is correct, havent done injector clean, but will do was really hoping the o2 sensor woudl fix economy, but its made no difference at all strong fuel smell reversing the car up the driveway, and apparently it did have a fuel leak, but piping was repaired cant smell fuel in the boot at all though
  2. got a powerfc fuel economy was bad with standard cpu before still bad with powerfc
  3. was reading on another forum that ive replaced my o2 sensor and fuel economy hasnt changed from 300ks a tank (regardless of how i drive, regardless of low or high boost) gets slightly better with highway driving
  4. can it affect fuel economy? i noticed in another thread that a guy got an extra 50/100 ks to a tank of fuel by replacing his charcol cannister my fuel economy is attrocious and i know my charcol cannister isnt hooked up . .. .
  5. heard the beeps didnt know where it was coming from though!
  6. ok, no improvement in fuel consumption with new o2 sensor was reading on another forum that could this help? i believe my charcole canister is unhooked
  7. mate, ive just sent you a pm; lunchtime today there was a lot of smoke and a bad smell (as well as the clICK CLICK CLIKC CLICK CLICKC LICKC LCIK) im gonna go get some quotes saturday morning from local auto electric places also; bloody money pits!
  8. indicator stalk? how much and whered u source it from? wreckers?
  9. yer, no airbag its a hard one to diagnose, as on any given day, it will be fine then the next not as for the smoke, its even rarer, only happens everynow and then (last time was driving down the coast to the bdo, and there was a fair bit of smoke) ill test everything tonite to make sure everything is working, but it was all working last time i checked
  10. good post im about 200rwkw, and its probably too much for just a street car just a quick blip and you are pretty much over the speed limit theres not many roads around where u can enjoy the power without exceeding the speed limit id love to make more power if i hit the track, but as my line is our daily driver and it needs to be on the road, it probably will never happen i wont be powering her up anymore i dont think
  11. not lately, but i do have a nardi wheel its weird, coz the indicators have always worked fine, even when the steering column is smoking; its just the incessant clicking, always clicking, click click CLICK EVEN WHEN IM NOT IN THE CAR I HEAR THE CLICKING, I CAN HEAR IT NOW ok, maybe its not that bad, but its getting there
  12. ok, my car has been doing this for a while and its pushing me to breaking point basically, the indicator noise comes on randomly (the actual indicators arent on, ive checked) so just driving along, you get click click click ....... (nothing for a few minutes then) click click click occaisionly i am seeing whisps of smoke out of the steering column the indicators all still work fine, everything on the column does I JUST CANT STAND THE NOISE ANYMORE anyone know someone good with skyline auto electrics?
  13. driving unlicensed is asking for trouble have an accident? you are not insured even worse if you hurt or kill someone . . .. . . . .
  14. yup, i bought a bosch as well and mercury in brisbane told me to get rid of it so got a walbro no dramas with 200 (just a bit less ) rwkw the 040s dont like to lie down in the tank apparently where as the walbro will fit like the original fuel pump
  15. straight from the dyno afrs are nearly constant 12
  16. ok, have replaced my o2 sensor with the ngk one for an r33 gts-t part number 0ZA395E2AB no difference to economy so far what else can cause poor fuel economy i dont get more than 300ks a tank from a 200rwkw gts-t (via usual mods, powerfc etc)
  17. woah thats a lot of tweaking im wondering what else can cause bad fuel economy mines been pretty bad for a while; ive changed the throttle body (i believe im using a ford 80ml one) would that effect fuel economy? any other tips i can try at home to increase fuel economy, just a little? i seem to be locked into 300k/s tank regardless of booting it or cruising
  18. ok, thats totally different from mine; perhaps sr20s o2 sensors work differently from r33 ones! what sort of fuel economy u get thunderbolt? i did a few coasty runs with my new o2 sensor and it doesnt seem to be any better ill give it a few tanks of petrol though before i start worrying
  19. i didnt bother following through to the joke someone copy and paste it, if its worthwhile
  20. mmm, my tuner must have turned it off then
  21. yer, i just did that (after reading the faq!) is it turned off be default on powerfc?
  22. ok, got a new o2 sensor today what readings should it be getting on the pwrfc hc? always reads between 0 and 1 volt, what sort of values should i see at crusing? how can i tell if my new o2 sensor is making a difference? can i at all?
  23. i like my car running propperly, so i pay professionals to work on it
