RB20DET, Stock turbo 15psi 164rwkw

City: 470km's per ~50litres. That is until the red light first shows.

Open Road: Not sure have never taken it on a full tank.

WOT: Booting it the RB20DET would drop fuel economy to low 400's per tank.

Driving style didn't appear to make much difference to fuel economy.

RB30DET - Stock rb20det turbo 176rwkw 9psi.

City: 450km's per 50litres.

Open Road: Again. Not sure.

WOT: Booting it the RB30DET drops to 380km's per tank.

I'm scared to start swapping out the stock injectors incase fuel economy goes to the sh*t. :D

Mind you Bl4ck32 has 550cc rx7 injectors thats all been tuned up, his rb30det in his r32 tends to get slightly better fuel economy than mine.

ive found a trend in my car. it's basically always KMs/10 + 10 = Litres of fuel

so 350kms = 45L filled up

400km = 50L filled up ... and so on

my 33's usage was similar

so far ive only had one tank which was used for pure thrashing and i did about 250km in 55Ls :D

freeway driving is typically a lot better than the formula above.. the other day after filling up, i drove 130kms. then i pulled over and filled it up again, and i only put in 16Ls..

edit: i just realised that the above does not apply to u as i have an rb25det in my 32.. lol sorry.

Hiya,

I've got an R32 GTS-t manual and I get roughly 380-400km out of the tank of regular city/suburban driving.

just did a drive up to Sydney and back a few weeks ago before that dreaded fuel increase and estimated with general cruising averaging 115-120km/h I could get around 600km to the tank.

Mind you though the car's running an aftermarket replacement ECU and it doesn't run an airflow metre anymore so I was expecting it to drink more than that... :)

Fuel tanks get a build up of crap over the years. A friend of mine had a vl turbo that used to run really rough whenever the fuel gauge went below 1/4. Thats the worst I've ever seen.

You could fix it by taking the fuel tank out and cleaning it out, but that is just sooooo much effort, much easier to just keep a nice amount of fuel in there. :)

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      By hypergear · Posted

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

      Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.

      Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?

      Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
