Well Ive been reading, all the fuel consumption threads and not one of them really talked about AUTO na skylines.

So regarding the auto skylines, how much fuel do they take? L/km

Mods would just be 3" exhaust full.

I Have used the SEARCH feature, but it wasn't really helpfull.

Edit: what's better in fuel efficiency skylines na or supras na?

Not sure about autos, so I don't really have an answer to your main question. Wouldn't be DRASTICALLY different from manuals though, I wouldn't think... much more dependant upon your right foot imo.

The consensus around here is to go 2.25-2.5" for the catback though, 3" is probably bit too big. Loud as balls too.

Not firsthand experience, but I'd daresay NA supra will have similar fuel efficiency to the NA skylines, 9-13L/100km or so? So average it out as 11? Haha.

So I've been told that Supra's drink petrol like its water.

Well I can give you the exact answer your looking for.

I get a good 425KM running on a full tank of Premium 98 before the empty light comes on. I believe it could do at least 450KM before I start running on fumes, but I tend not to risk it, although I do plan to run completely dry until my 34 becomes dehydrated to the point the engine shuts off just to see the MAXIMUM it can do on a full tank.

Gotta get myself a Jerry can first.

But to answer your question, 425KM on full tank of 98. Auto R34 25GT with RB25DE, no mods. Costs me about $140 a week though to run, since it's my daily and I drive it to city and back most days.

But do you really have to put 98, $140 week is alot

You don't NEED to. I drive it at least 3 hours a day to and from work so I do use it a bit more than others would. You don't have to use 98, in fact RB25DE is recommended to use premium 95 (what it says on my engine plate anyway). You could also use premium 91 or E10 fuels. Although it isn't recommended since they are dirtier fuels and can give you engine problems later on.

You can pay less for fuel if you drive it less, Keep in kind that I drive it quite often.

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
