acidkid Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi i recently got my Ps and started driving my 92 R32 GTS25 by myself and i have filled up twice now and i think im getting really bad fuel economy. Im a pertty big noob when it comes to cars so i couldnt really tell u wat mods i got. Both times i did around 320 km per full 60L tank and i asked a few ppl and their gtrs do better then that so im just wondering if there is anything wrong and if your guys got any suggestions thx Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/106384-r32-fuel-economy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Bliss Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Such a large factor with fuel ecconomy is dependant on how the individual drives the vehicle... e.g. Car: R32 GTS-t Mods: Lots... Good week at work, 400kms easily... Sh*t week at work - girlfriend - momentary fits of rage, 253kms (and own PB) It really does depend mate... also, mods? Any? It's an RB25, and you might have your lead shoes on... But around the 330 - 400 mark I think you'll find is pretty stock standard. Cheers.

Murry33 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 (edited) Do a major service on your car, something sounds wrong on yoursl ...my r32 na does way better than that on a full tank like 400-500+kms., with the occasional flooring it lol..... some advise, watch your fuel guage when driving normaly, then watch it when you floor it a few times the fuel guage shows how much you really use when doing that.

predator Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 auto rb25t with 190rwkws and i get 370 to 450 from 60l champ thats 15L/100km ! thats hardly good either.. acidkid: if yours is auto that could explain a lot.. seems like economy on the autos is quite a bit worse than the manual.

fEkuaR Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 i get a tad over 10l per 100km in my 33 gtst with basics modifications. And i give it quite a bit at times.

eMsta Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 I get something like 130 - 140 klms per 15 litres for my manual r33 - Though just today i got 120 in about 20 ltrs ( but thats cos I had a full tank, and i was demonstrating the turbo for a couple of my friends).

R33TOM Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 who cares about fuel economy, you drive a skyline not a toyota echo, if i want fuel economy i wouldnt be driving a skyline, enjoy it while petrol is still affordable, theres less and less oil in the world, in 10 years time we'll prob be paying $2- $3 a litre Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/106384-r32-fuel-economy/#findComment-1968615 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammus Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 yeah. at the start of each tank i've been known to say many a time "okay, no hooning it for the whole tank to see how many Ks you can get" ... well, that plan always goes out the window. i get a bit over 300km to the tank most of the time. i should change these o2 sensors like everyone says! i have trained myself to always just put it in neutral down hills and rolling toward the lights though.

SUGO Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 my car is r34 gt4 i got 21 litre per 100 km i think it's very bad i already check once by maintenance man. they check exhaust emission. and said no any problem... i want to know: how to check o2 sensor? and can inject oil to tank fix problem? i bought this car form japan, nobody driver it in nearly half year, is this reason for fuel problem?

Definately get it checked out by an EFI diagnostic center.

If you put it in neutral that would use more fuel according to my understanding. When you put it in neutral the motor has to dump fuel in to stop the car from stalling. If you are rolling down a hill or rolling towards the lights in gear you are using less fuel because your motor is turning itself from the momentum of your wheels. I think most ECUs cut fuel on deacceleration. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
