What's Your Fuel Consumption Like?

[HEKT1K]

about 350-380km from F to E .. which is about 50L. moderate driving, but short trips hurt the economy i think

lol 300rwkw and a heavy right foot has its drawbacks

i get 220km to 3/4 tank, so i'd say 300 to a tank

lol terrible... i have about the same power as you and last tank got 420km.

Before the tune it was doing about 500km per tank, so extra 100kw in the tune and only lost 80km per tank, pretty good.

Averaging 13L/100km over the last 20000kms, track days excluded from calculation.

Babying it day to day though. I can get about 420km per tank before the light comes on. I'm trying my heart out to hit the 500km mark in daily driving without the help of going on long trips via the highway.

Used to get 14-15/100km when I first got the car and it was completely stock except for cat back exhaust. Have to admit that I was in new toy mode though.

In my 34 GTR I get about 14ish L/100km, it has a full exhaust, cam gears, fuel pump, wolf computer and 262rwkw

On the freeway it is obviously better

yeah mine fails hard cause of stop start driving and the cold start being on for like 50% of the time

at my old house it was about the same as yours... and on cruises i get the same as most people with similar power

[Jezza-gtR]

I get about 400-450 stop start driving.. 500-550 on long trips

cruising around the trip shows around 12L/100KM and cruising on the freeway gets down to about 10 L/100KM

Not to bad for an old RB30E manual

[bluejeans]

300-350 max.

just replaced o2 sensor and done ECU reset and no change

[bozodos]

18L/100 highway or town, 280km to a tank of 98

Gotta love Microtechs with shit tunes, and no easy or cost effective way of retuning the f**king thing.

[Phatboy]

R34 GTR with 700cc injectors

280 km/50L = 18L/100kms relatively tame city driving

Running rich as though, need to get it leaned out a bit. Not driving it much as $1 every 4 km adds up f'en fast.

[Brandon]

18L/100km... thats shit! But I suppose if you're running high hp, you can justify that.

[Phatboy]

300 awkw, but still shit poor economy. With leaner, but still safe tune should be able to hit 14-15L/100 km easy.

[Brandon]

Yea... you'd want to get that tune if you're driving a lot. Hahaha. I got 450-500 per tank easy before the tune and after its still 450. But having said that, if I feel like letting it loose a little, it'll drop to 350-400. Still good consumption imo.

[Mayuri Krab]

Usually between 12.5 to 14.5L/100km

Mods are:

3" turbo back exhuast with high flow CAT

POD

R34 GTT SMIC

Bleed valve set at 10PSI

SAFC-2

Made ~180rwkw when I got it tuned.

[ujin]

340awkw i get 200km/tank flat.. no boost..

[bozodos]

haha oh I forgot to mention thats without going over 5k RPM in mine, boost pressure etc seems to make no difference.

Maybe everyone should post up L/100km or km/L instead of full tank. Better way of comparison.

Agreed. Tank is pretty useless because everyone fills up at a different point.

I think going by full tank might be a better representative of the car's overall fuel economy since it will weigh differently when full,1/2 or 1/4 empty.

I am much happier with the consumption I'm getting considering its a GTR though I do miss 500-600km that I got from NA cars.

Nah, not when the term full tank can mean 50 litres or 55 litres!

Best thing to do is fill a tank until full (petrol pump click), reset the trip meter to zero...when the tank is near empty again go fill up at the servo and take note of how many litres it took to fill. Then divide your litres by your km traveled and multiply by 100 for a litres/100km figure.

[brat81]

well i fill up my tank untill the pump cuts out, and i got 462km and that was to the fuel light.

Shouldnt the car run like a normal car when its not on boost (consumption wise)? That sucks. And thats at 340awkw... I'm curious whats the consumption like for those 1000hp cars... hahaha.

That's what I mean.

I remember reading somewhere (there's a hell of a lot of post about Skyline economy on the net) of an R34 GTR that's doing under 13l/100km and fairly modified.
