Holy mileage

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Hey everyone, just reporting that I tried to drive really carefully and slow to get maximum MPG, well, so far I have only flogged the car three or four times and I have over 360KM on a half tank.

I usually drive really hard, and have only achieved up to 21mpg HWY MAX!!! And at a half tank, the odo would usually read 150-200km.

So, I think right now I'm around 22-23mpg which is crazy for me, I'm usually happy with 16-18 mixed driving... just thought I'd put this out there for anyone who feels or drives like I usually do... I think my recent switch to Amsoil synthetic from Mobile 1 may have helped also... Trying royal purple next time.

Ok... I drove my G like a frikn Grandma for 1 full tank of 91.

All city driving.

I got approx. 420km's



I ALWAYS average 395-400km's per tank

So far on my 2 tanks I drive hard occasionally (still enjoying having some power). But on the way to work I'm light as possible and have had a few hwy trips, getting 350 miles to a tank (not all the way to E) and 21.6 mpg each time.

I just filled my 1st tank of gas on the 37x

620 km, mostly highway

[LuckyLuke]

I am the stepper! gas pedal is my friend! I got only 19 or 18 mpg.. Now gas is going back up $3 dollars a gallon.. I need to go back to driving like G_Whizz..

I am all over the places. Usually I get 370-400 km on a tank. But lately I behave a lot more than I used to. So I am getting 470-500km. I'll be on a trip in July to the east coast. We shall see what I am getting that time.

Nice Milage on the G37x!!!I drive 90miles daily to and from work. I have had the car for 2wks and have manage to get 340miles per 3/4 of the tank (about 15gal). This is about 23mpg. I dont drive like a granny My drive is a mix of back roads and highway, making my average speed about 55mph. Apparently the new transmittion is doing its part (7-speeds ), since at crusing speeds, the engine is going at about 2000 RPMS.I definitlly look forward, for the engine to loosen up, since this will help a bit with milage.If you want to save gas, you dont need to drive slow, just dont slam the accel., this has help me a lot!!

See if that efficiency keeps up though. I recall when I drastically changed my driving habits, the MPG increased by 20%, but all subsequent fill-ups fell slightly.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Well honestly I think it is all about driving style, conditions are just a factor in the equation.

I usually just floor it in every passing zone to get past as many cars as I can, that kills my highway mileage - for obvious reasons.

Now on this tank, I try to just do the flow of traffic. I think I may hit the 600km+ mark on this tank, with 50% hwy, and 50% city usage on 91 octane... That only happened to me once before, I got 635km after hitting a track event out of town... it was a long drive, all highway on Mobile 1 5w30, I think I even had a NOS fuel octane boost in er' as well.

Conclusion: The G35 likes to spit fire, but it will also be a docile grammy cruiser if you let it.

my last fill up on 93 i got 22.7 mpg... i averaged between 80-90 mph on my trip to southern ga to a wedding. so i think it would of been much better at 70mph... but the g35 dont like 70mpg... itll sit at 80 with out tring.

mixed driving i been consistantly getting 19-20mpg.

i use shell or chevron 93, which ever in closest to when i need gas...

[Focusedintntions]

I usually avg about 21 mpg or so...I don't drive my car too much with travel for work, so when i get home i usually romp on her a bit to remember what acceleration feels like Best take i ever averaged was 28 mpg on a 5 hour trip to nothern PA. This weekend i'll be doing some more good gas mileage as i'll be driving to VIR to go watch some races.

[joe603]

My MPGs went down by 3 when I started to drive city only. I get around 19 now.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Yeah, city driving sucks, I just moved on the ocean, It only takes me 20-25min to get to work right downtown... before I moved, it would take me 45 min just to get to the outskirts of the city in traffic. So happy to be out of the busy sections in rush hour...

[Tampa G35 Sedan 6MT]

Yea I bet... Post some pics of the new house!

[BrandAidDesignG35]

It's nothing crazy, but it's a nice place to live, really quiet (until I fire up my nissans) and I have a nice view of the ocean, dog loves the space, and GF loves it, that's what counts

[Tampa G35 Sedan 6MT]

Very nice...

I want to see the ocean view lol

[G_whizz]

SWEET!

Congrats on the new digs!! Especially by the Ocean...nice score!

My latest results are in my signature.

How do I stack up in kilometers per gallon or liters?

[fiveliterbeater]

can someone explain to me why we are all discussing MPG's and then using kilometers per tank?

Canadian's are weird. That's my vote.

Apparently you are at:40.3 km per gallonOr10.64 km per liter

According to online calculators.

[blmawhi]

Hahahaha....Canadians. What's the conversion to mpg anyways?

[pfarmer]

Hahahaha....Canadians. What's the conversion to mpg anyways?

Imperial gallons?

You need to go buy more gas.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

You need to go get yourself a G35

[zozoka1212]

Grant that looks good. Over 600 km. I probably can get it when I go your way next month.

Congrats on the ocean view. Load up some pics. Now you can spend a load of money and all of your free time on the house. LOL I know that's what I do.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Tell me about it...

Let me know when you're coming down... Spending time in Halifax or what?

I don't have any pics on my work Mac, you'll have to come out and see for yourself You owe me for that sig!!!
