    what is the typical fuel mileage on these cars?

    like the topic says.

    i look at my last tank, and my current tank, and ive managed to get about 400km out of my last tank. right now, ive got 220km out of my current tank and ive got half a tank left according to the gauge. is it me, or does it seem to be a bit low for a car with such displacement? i drive fairly conservatively and dont hit boost often, and for the most part, the revs tend to stay under 3.5k. im not sure if my car just needs a tune-up of some sort, since everything on the car seems to be new, but it seems like im getting incredibly bad fuel mileage for how i drive

    if your worried about your fuel mileage, completely stay out of boost.
    I use to be able to get 400-500km to the tank(not in town driving).

    Clean your MAF. Change your plugs. if your still concerned, "You gotta PAY to PLAY"

    this is weird then, because I'm able to do between 550km and 600km a tank even when I did take the rev up often(up to 5000rpm) to get the turbo up to 10 psi.

    my last tank lasted 583.7km and I did shift at 7000rpm a lot of times.

    you'd better check your plugs, wires, fuel filter.... and all of the other stuff related that influence gas mileage.

    Check you O2 sensors also.
    In the end the gov't will do as they please and if they do kill the 15 yr rule life will go on, and we will find other cars readily available to pour our hearts and wallets into. The Skyline is a great car, but its not the only one. It might be a case of easy come easy go.------------- JZ

    bauahaha. highflow pump and stock FPR. I hit 300km on a good day. LOL.

    Right now I'm getting wicked fuel economy. Car is broken and I haven't filled up in 3 weeks!

    When I was mostly stock I got 500-600 as well :'(

    i usually dont put anymore then around 43L in, so if i was able to get 400km out of that, i guess its fairly decent gas mileage compared to my BMW which was kinda a pig on fuel
