Hey Fellas.

My R33 GTST is getting about 230Ks to the Tank... However big it is. Roughly 50Ltrs. The car has FMIC and is only running 10psi as only mods, and 19" rims.( not that it would matter).

I have read the forum of the R34 experiencing the same problems, but i am thinking different motor, different problems.

Any help or tips to rectify my fuel guzzling problem ????

Cheers Fellas.

Michael

If changing the O2 sensor would fix it, I would have included it.

For the 23,965,351st time, the ECU only responds to the O2 sensor at constant load / throttle. And there is very little of that in city driving. So changing the O2 sensor will have very little impact on fuel economy in city driving.

hey mate that is bad. my S2 has a pod, front mount, and zorst and i still get bout 500 from a tank. Is the car new to you or have you had it for a while?

As if its new for you i guarantee as said here already ease up on the old right foot (god knows i went through like 5 tanks of fuel in the first 2 weeks i had mine)

other than that service it if u dont know how long ago it was done. especially check for dirty airfilters and gunked up intakes had isue like this with previous cars you would be surprised the effect a dirty filter can cause after a while.

but im still gonna finnish by sayin ease up on the right foot :ninja:

Yer i will ease up.. and i probs should get it serviced as i dont know how long ago it was done.

Also, my mate who was driving behind me the other day, said that when i accelerated hard or harder than usual.. heaps of black shit was comming out of the exhaust. So maybe there is tooo much fuel goin into it. running way too rich??? dunno..

Its not oil, cos oil is blue smoke.

I wanna do a highway test to Brisbane from rocky. ABout 7hrs, but i am scared i will run out of fuel.

So yer about it running rich???

Cheers
