Fuel Consumption In A N/a Skyline

[xALmoN]

wtf is the a/d light? lol

the 910 is only rated to around 400hp, will be using it as a lift pump to my surge tank

a/d light is the error light for cruise control.

i'm still running stock boost, so i dont think it matters, i won't really go past 250rwkw on that thing anyway.

ah right, fair enough...mine doesnt throw error codes

Around 10 L for an R33

+1 to the falcon, i drive one daily and it is just superior for doing the km's, 10L/100kms it is just pure torque, its an auto and 1700rpm just gear changes flowing and keeps up with traffic, easy and economical what more can you ask for? handles like a boat but thats not what its being used for lol..

Yeah, the torque compared to an rb30e is quite plentiful. They get going for such a big car, 5 speed makes it fun too. Doesnt handle as well as old car tho, but I dont care, just a daily thats fun and good on fuel. ($40/week and I drive almost every day)

Where is the fuel light on a 33 supposed to be?

[central coast person]

Fuel light (im pretty sure) is fursest to the left on the bottom

I think it really just comes down to the condition of the car, im getting really good KM's out of my car now

Just got 500k's out of a tank on the weekend.

[xALmoN]

i got home from winton using less than 1/4 tank.

[Miguelone]

How big is your tank?

[xALmoN]

70L

[Miguelone]

45L in the Skyline, probbly used about 1/4 tank from Shepp to home.

[zebra]

Its pretty much the L-package...has all the options except leather

Prob weighs 1650 less driver

I hated that surge with less than 10L in the tank...fixed it with a new pump though, can go WOT with 5L and no surge

1620 according to the rego papers

aaaannnndddd R33s have a 65L tank

Then why does it get full from under the empty line on around 45?

Probably not empty? Also do you stop filling when the pump stops or keep going till it's at the brim of the tank? I got 62L in mine last week.

[Miguelone]

Keep going.

[central coast person]

Keep going.

Its just the sender needing a clean by the sounds of it.

this. most cars will have the fuel light come on with about 10L left in the tank. the most i ever got into my 33 was 60L and the light was on for a little bit.

[r33-Scotty]

ive never had the light on the dash and have twice had the pin under the empty line

[jjman]

apologies if this has already been said before but i had a similar problem with economy in my GTS N/A.

fixed it with brand new O2 sensor, new plugs, new air filter n cleaned the AFM. Then i reset the ecu. economy increased by 15%+

Usually the O2 sensor on the old N/A's is to blame. Cos they require less attention than turbo's people naturally give em less. So things like this go unchecked...
