BUZ440 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Thats not too bad at all Reed considering, I have travelled 300km and still have half a tank (from what i can deduce from the 180SX cluster) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willis Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) Thats not too bad at all Reed considering, I have travelled 300km and still have half a tank (from what i can deduce from the 180SX cluster) I got from Byron Bay to Newcastle and back in the S13 on around about 2 tanks. As it got colder travelling south, I was giving it a bit of a poke every now and again too. Crazy how much difference it makes. It was going harder than it does normally up here and I had two people in the car. Felt like it anyway Edited February 21, 2012 by willis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwontarolla Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 17L/ 100. 4k with shaved head, cam, full exhaust, and 32/36 weber needing a really good tune. already spent $110 on petty this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbey Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Wow that's really, really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickn5k Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) Wow that's really, really bad. I would have added an extra really. That's what my EFI supercharged setup gave. Mind you the only part of the trim that was right was wide open throttle! I had it down to 12-14ltr/100km when I had most of it sorted, which I was happy with as it did make 100rwkw @ 9psi. Reason for edit. Is W O T with no spaces your new M I N T mods? Seems to keep changing to "what"? Edited July 23, 2012 by kickn5k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19914afc Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) Haha auto correct spelling, my 07 turbo diesel auto hiace got just under 8L/100 driving back from whitsundays did it all in one trip.

iwontarolla Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Yea it needs to go for a tune, but i don"t know when I'm going to find time to take it in so hopefully petrol prices stay kinda low or I'm going to be broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 32/36 weber needing a really good tune. I can't see tuning it giving you 10l/100km off your 17! What are the plugs like?? Black as a coal mine? Might be the needle/seat leaking all the time or the float sunk.. grab some different jets off guys on here and try them.

iwontarolla Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Well what i mean by tuning is a rejet as it has only been roughly jetted. But it is just pumping the fuel through, it blows unburnt fuel out in puddles. Its good fun when people are tail gating. Its a brand new carby so nothing should be sticking or leaking but ill have to have a look. Plugs I'm not sure about haven't looked at them but they will be black.

flyinwall Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 my old 80 series landcruiser (the one in my avatar) 4.2 diesel extractors 2.75" exhaust 33" mud tyres would get me 10lt - 100km and with 120lt of fuel on board i didnt have to stop for fuel very often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 Well what i mean by tuning is a rejet as it has only been roughly jetted. How far out can they be? They would have been jetted for a 1600 or a 2L from factory. Take a look at what they are, The mains should be around 135-140 & the airs around 160-170 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwontarolla Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 mains are 145 i think, the airs I'm unsure of, i bought it from a carbie guy in Adelaide. he jetted it to what he thought would be close and said come in when its running, but I'm hoping it can be jetted down a bit cause at the moment its shocking to drive.

altezzaclub Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Ah- he would have it pretty right. I reckon float level or needle & seat must be just flooding petrol in there. It will be interesting to find out in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh-KE Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) Been doing some fuel calculations. I got 400ks with 36.7 ltrs of 95 fuel (9.18 ltrs per 100ks). Car has extractors and intake mods but no engine work. Pretty happy, but kind of feel it should be better than that.. hmmm :hmm: Edited September 7, 2012 by Oh-KE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
