I was Just wanting to know how many kms per tank people are getting??

Please list your car, engine, kms and litres it takes you to fill the tank!

The best i've ever gotten was 350km for a 55litre fill and i have a R32 GTS4 with RB20DET

Thanks

I constantly get 400-450km per 40-45 litres - its always at 10L/100 ! I only use BP ultimate or if not near a BP, Caltex (Vortex 98).

Although I do drive the freeway to & from work as well as alot of around town, cruises etc

Although the car is currently getting the last mods installed so I am waiting to see what the outcome will be on my fuel economy :D

i get 65l per fill and get about 200km out of the tank, but i drive hard and mostly under boost. i drive the car to work and back evry now and then and thats a 55 km highway thats practicly empty at the hours i go to work, so its pedal to the metal. mind you guys i run at least 450-475 kw and push 23 psi on a T04Z with 1000cc squirters and 2 fuel pumps with a 2l swirl system and run 11.9 AFR in my mill.

the distance you drive regularly REALLY REALLY makes a difference

    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
