R33 Fuel Consumption?

[mbate23]

Hi, I've owned my 1997 r33 gts-t for about 6 days now and I'm a little shocked by the fuel consumption. According to the specs (http://meggala.com/r33main1.html) it says 9.8L/100km. So far I've used 3/4 of a tank and done 335km and 300km's of that was done on the highway driving home from the dealer. The car is a fresh import and the only modifications are a blitz catback exhaust. I haven't flogged the car or taken off too quickly as it is my first turbo and have been abit cautious about it. I was just wondering what sorts of mileage are other people getting from their cars as according to my calculations so far I'm doing about 14.5L/100km.

Thanks

Matt

typical around town is about 12-13L/100km with a bit of boosting. It will use 14L/100km if I am enjoying myself.

R34GTT stocky cept exhaust around 13.5/100 city though last tank with a fair amount of highway 9.6/100 , frikin amazed me , I now have a strong suspicion that the Caltex 98 I've been getting aint 98 all the time, actualy I'll go further and say most of the time , as my K's per hundred have been anything from 12/100 to 16/100 all city not much happy foot. .

Could be a sad 02 sensor though I don't think thats likely.

My GT-R uses between 12.1l/100Km (hwy) up to over 16 (mountainsides)
