Hi all new to the skyline world, just bought a r32 gtr and was wondering what the fuel consumption is like on a stockie.

Also whats the fuel consumption on ur car, include mods so i can see what to expect.

Thanks

hows it goin, im alexr33, ive got an r33 gtst with quite a few mods done to it including full 3 inch exh with high flow cat, upgraded turbo, splitfire coils, k & n filter, heavy duty clutch, huge front mount cooler, running 18 pounds just to mention a few and im only getting 225 to 275 ks out of 3/4 of a tank, depending on how i drive of course. But when i got it, it was standard and i only got about 350 ks, so the more mods you do, the more feul she sucks.

should have got better mileage then that from a stock 33, is it tuned properly? (closed loop)

To answer your question, if your worried about fuel consumption. Sell you GTR. Its all in how you use the accellerator.

Thanks for the reply guys, I'm not worried about the fuel consumption just wanted to know what to expect from her as it'll be my daily driver whilst I'm building a show car.

This is what she looks like just after compliance with 68thou K's on the clock, i know the importers so it wasnt wound back from their end.

I'm stripping it back today to respray her, cant stand the gun metal grey paint, its so common. Will be black with purple pearls.

More replies on consumption will be great :(

Sacrilege!! I'll pretend I didn't hear that....

All the guys who have posted back to you here are Gts-t's, you need to run some searches, there has been alot said about the R32 gtr's fuel consumption.

From what i've read anyway, depending on the car, its not uncommon to see anywhere from 200-400k's out of a tank. Pretty big descrepency huh?

      I mean it's probably likely that people overestimate their skills in dialling in a setup and noticing the changes. I had SK shocks and springs, and added heavier springs and got them revalved by Sydney Shocks to suit based upon what I told them I wanted the car to handle like. I got back a completely different feeling set of shocks, which probably (?) feel great on track but holy hell are they rough on tram tracks and the like. Truth be told I doubt I'd be any faster or slower with either setup, or camber/castor combination. I also had whiteline eccentric castor bushes up front of my R34. I removed them and put in poly non-adjustable ones to soothe my OCD (nobody ever set the castor the same side to side, and it'd be near impossible to do) and be happy the wheel is centered in the well now for clearance reasons. Yes I wanted it to move 1mm 'back' :p I've effectively set my castor back to stock, negating all the benefits of that which is supposedly massive. I can't tell any difference steering the car.

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      You reckon? I have to disagree. Notwithstanding that at some point we may all be forced to do this to our cars if we want to keep driving them, there is absolutely nothing about an electric-converted-previously-IC-car that is ever good. EVs that are built by OEMs on platforms that were originally IC already suck, let alone the shitty outcomes that result from doing it as a retro to something that was actually built as an IC car. This is because the platform really needs to be designed to house the battery in a useful place (ie, down as low as possible) and the motors are properly located relative to the wheels that they have to drive. Converted platforms already suck at this. But when you try to shove sufficient battery capacity into a previously IC car, you can't put it down on/in the floor, because that space doesn't exist. You can't find enough space where the fuel tank used to be (if it is an inboard fuel tank) and you don't want to hang it out behind the rear axle line if you had a rear fuel tank. And there's not enough space in the tunnel if you still want to use it for anything remotely like what it was originally used for. The engine bay is too big for a motor, and you'd really prefer that the motor for the rear wheels wasn't in the front engine bay anyway. And there's not enough room where the diff was for a proper man-sized E motor. And then.... there is the complete lack of soul and emotion that is provided by EVs. There are some cracking restomods out there. Like the Alfaholics GTA thingo. But it is petrol powered. Look at the alternative EV version of a GTA restomod by Totem. it is jaw droppingly beautiful. But by all reports is is objectively awful to drive, despite having 600 HP or something, simply because there is nothing there. It sounds like a sewing machine or a leaf blower. It should scream and wail and make the hairs on your neck stand up. Oh, and it's 1500 bloody kg in a car that was <900kg when new. GTRs are heavy enough as it is without pushing them up to 2tonnes worth of pork.

      https://www.dezeen.com/2025/01/06/nissan-electric-r32-skyline-gt-r-godzilla-sports-car/   I reckon this is pretty cool. Lots of other Resto mods have turned to ev power.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      don't know anyone in this thread, but i just found it, read the entire thing in a few hours, realized greg is still posting progress, and just have to say, this is awesome. it looks awesome. 100% right about the Uras kit making it a pain to get on hoists...have the same kit on my 34 and it takes six 2x4s and race ramps to do it without taking parts off. this reminds me exactly of this thread. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/r63-amg-the-unicorn-of-my-destruction/110824/page8/
