Hi All,

Just wondering if the R34 Neo RB25DET fuel consumption is similiar to that of the R33 RB25DET? Better or Worse? just wondering if the VVT side of things made any difference? My r33 gtst was getting about 380-400kms tank (no thrashing mainly highway driving).

thanks.

I get similar economy from my r34 gtt, about 400k to a tank. 400k divided by 50 liters = 12.5 liters per hundred ks. thats freeway and city driving. A bit of boost every now and then, if i nursed to over a whole tank i think id get 450ish.

I have a pretty heavy right foot & I'll still get about 320-350k's before the light comes on

light bolt on mods at the moment, pod, fmic, full exhaust etc.

Once I get my Power FC installed & tuned I should see improvement in the fuel economy with a good tune

my light usually comes on around 10 or 15 litre left in tank

and R34 tank is 60litre

50 litre is may be after light comes on

im doing around 13 or 14litre per 100km

before clean the injector i had 16 or 17 litre per 100km

been improved after injectors

and i bought SAFC and waiting to be install and tune

100% city driving no highway.. may be around 5km hightway from artarmon to city (gorehill freeway)

im happy now but i was expect 11 or 12litre per 100

i hope i achive that rate after SAFC!

recently ive got 370 untill lights come up

im not sure it has really 15 litre left after lights up but if it does real.. i might go around 400 to 450litre per tank.

i usally fill the fuel straight away after lights up. thats about 50litre. so it goes around 360 to 370 per 50litre... so it could be 13 to 14 litre per 100km..

its normal right?

does boost controller makes your car richer? im going to fit boost controller and SAFC and tune them on dyno.. the BC is manual one that forum had big thread about it. turbo tech one lol

anyway would it get richer or if i tune on dyno would i get leaner?

cheers

I've got a stock GTT Sedan apart from coilovers and i drive from epping to erina (just past gosford, central coast nsw) 5 days a week and do a little city driving on the other days - do cruises often thru what i call boosty roads and occassionally within legal constraints give the turbo a good wackin and i manage to get 10l/100km. Around 500km b4 the gauge reaches 1/4 of a tank and then i fill up with about 48-53 litres.

I'm getting 11-12L/100K's out of mine. (ive only filled up 3 times though so we'll see how consistent that is in a month or so) Mostly highway driving but regularly on boost otherwise.

R34 tank is 66L just for the record..

I get about 300-350 a tank.. I worked out if you refill her before half tank u get more bang for your buck .. launching it or not.. ended up with about 75-100km more than running a full tank down.

Used to get about 400-450km per 50L-55L. I found the light in mine was really cautious, ie when it came on I could still drive at least another 50km. That was with 200rwkw and tuned PFC, mix of street and highway driving.

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears.

      Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P

      Cheers for the info mate, I'm old too, 60 years old next May, so a more linear delivery of the 0.86 would be better as baking tyres and snapping heads isn't on the cards for me or the car I assume a more linear power delivery would be better for engine and drivetrain reliability as well, IRT the torque load at lower RPM???, as well as lower EGT's???, if my understanding of that is correct, have I got that right??? I've only got a really basic understanding of turbo sizing and all there characteristics  Cheers for the useful information

      What kind of power delivery are you after? If it's nice and linear, the 0.86 would be better. If you're after bake tyres and head snaps on boost the 0.64 would be fun. I'm boring and old, so linear power is preferred. Lately I've been watching videos on Z06 Corvettes and super charged Mustangs....
