After my tune, first tank: 303.3km/52L.

Second tank is looking slightly better. Most of my driving is peak hour with moderate stop start traffic.

HKS 2535, Bosch 040, Denso 550cc injectors, Link ECU, turbo back exhaust, pod, cooler. I think its making around 190rwkw on 1.1bar.

Not enough k's for my liking =|

The RB30DET in the R31 gets a consistant 12.5L/100 around town with a/c on and some fanging, around 11.5L/100 with a/c off.

On freeway it only does 10.0L/100, dissapointing really, I think mainly due to cruising RPM at high freeway speeds at 3000rpm, due to short 3.7:1 diff ratio.

Needs a 6 speed box and rpm dropped down to around 1500rpm, then it should be doing around 7L/100km. (Based on the fact my RB30ET (less efficient) can do 10.0L/100 on freeway with a/c on - has taller diff ratio)

Could go taller diff ratio, but will loose some snapiness of the lower gears.

Also would improve if boost afr mixtures were a little leaner as well.

haha, i must admit i was impressed but didn't really know quite how good it was until now (compared with others)

has the normal little things: fmic, pod, 3" turbo back exhaust, 11psi, etc (for more info)

the guy i bought it from told me it had gtr fuel pump and remapped ecu but who knows...

he also told me it had a heavy duty brass button clutch which was a complete lie

The old RB20DET @ 1bar, stock ecu, stock airbox, fmic & 3" exhaust making 164rwkw used to consistently crack 470km's to 50-52litres.

The RB30DET is a touch heavier on fuel and usually see's 430-450km's to a tank but I do tend to give it a little more stick as it loves off idle acceleration. :domokun:

A little bit of open road 100km/h cruising and fuel economy pushes easily over 500km's to a tank.

Its always been reasonable on fuel. It appears some cars are some aren't. Possibly driving style when you are driving slow/cruising? I've found I see a noticable improvement in economy shifting up around 2000-2500rpm absolute max in every gear even if it means using a little more throttle; get it in to top gear asap. Drop some nulon fuel system cleaner in it every 10,000km's and thats pretty much all I do.

my r33 running 10psi - 221kw (highway) is better than a guy i know who bought nearly stock r33! dunno if there is anything wrong with his car...... just changed my fuel filter too. plus tighned my intercooler piping which is always good because loose pipes ect. will make you car idle higher... more fuel consuption. And dont hit the accelerater too hard, cause when i open her up u can see the fuel gauge needle drop!

    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
