EAT26 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Its going for a service soon, so hoping to change oils. Ive been using Motul 8100 5-40w fully sen since i started driving it on the road. So maybe a different oil could help? What do you guys reccomend? Im also going to buy an ECUtalk cable of ebay, sus out shit some more, get a better idea of whats happening. BTW, thats great fuel economy dude Well if its the same oil you have been using since you bought the car shouldnt be that... I just noticed it with mine... that the loss was that great. I honestly would put it on the dyno and see what your AFRs are like... Where abouts you located? I personally have been to 5 shops in QLD, I only trust 2 of them so If in QLD go to EFI or ERD. Yeah its great it wasnt that good after I got it back the first time(it was detonating so I went elsewhere) and then EFI tuned my car and got it to 467hp Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/369711-r33-gtr-problems-running-rich-drinking-too-much-fuel/page/2/#findComment-5894641 Share on other sites More sharing options...

scibidibibop Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Hey might be a bit late but i thought that id add that i had the same issue and i replaced the thermostat sensor that runs to the ecu and i got an extra 75 - 100kms out of every tank. Got a genuine nissan one for $100 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/369711-r33-gtr-problems-running-rich-drinking-too-much-fuel/page/2/#findComment-6010639 Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgtr7 Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Thanks for the feedback champ, will look into it.. Ive changed my oil, spark plugs, wheel alignment and balance, cleaned both mafs, and i couldnt be happier. I still need to get my oxy sensor sussed out and that thermo sensor.

mad082 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 with a consult cable you could check the temp sensor. the software will tell you what the ecu is reading as the temp, and if it's not right you will see.
