MPG HEROS

[TU_MADRE]

I thought I'd start a thread for people to talk about good gas mileage.
I'll start, my 5 spd honda with the little 1.7 four banger gets 32-34 city and 38-40 highway.

[krimsonviper]

Combined 35MPG the only time I did the measurement.

[Watermelonwarrior]

Right now my combined mpg is 16.8.... ouch

[anti_flag_army]

I get 30 city in the miata and thats not even thinking about gas mileage, revving it up a lot and whatnot.

[krash]

The highest of gotten on my 240 was 26 with premium

[sultan]

i get 60+ with my sv650

[dusred]

I get around 6 with my ford (Yeah, I need new injectors).

[poems2beats]

I get around 6 with my ford (Yeah, I need new injectors).

6.0? Those HEUI injectors can be expensive lol

[Zydeco]

[dusred]

I get around 6 with my ford (Yeah, I need new injectors).

6.0? Those HEUI injectors can be expensive lol

7.3. And yeah the injectors are $350 a piece and there's 8 of them. FML.

[poems2beats]

If your gunna replace them might as well upgrade and throw in a new lift pump too:)

[rsmithdrift]

My old z got 27

My 240 when tuned with SAFC for fuel mileage has gotten 34 average.

On factory tune I get 27 usually. 30 if I'm really careful about my driving habits.

worst I get is 22 pushing hard when the SAFC was tuned for max power.

I did get 14 when I had a bad MAF though lol.

[ProudNissanFreak]

My old B14 for 46 highway, 40ish city
Current Honda, not so much. 33ish highway, 26ish city

[Bubba1]

My old GMC gets 13mpg with a car on it's back. not bad for a 12,000 lb gvw truck.

[frapjap]

The firebird get 21 on a weekly basis, if I'm nice to it.
Been as low as 12.
Been as high as 28 going 55-60mph on back highways in Maine.

[dusred]

If your gunna replace them might as well upgrade and throw in a new lift pump too:)

Been there done that. It cost me $500. :O

[kouki munster]

7.3. And yeah the injectors are $350 a piece and there's 8 of them. FML.

Holy crap, I don't believe that a 7.3 injector is more expensive than a 6.0 injector. I paid $235(regular price is $290) for a 6.0 injector from the dealership.

[Ashloo]

My S14 will get 29-30mpg if I stay out of boost. 91 octane
I dd a dodge ram...14-16mpg...100 miles per day. 87 octane fml
And I don't even want to imagine what my S13.5 gets. ~387whp 110 octane

[TU_MADRE]

It seems like the newer 240's get better gas mileage but I've never heard of a S13 getting anything decent maybe because of their condition?

[Dattebayo]

The old VG S12 used to get 15 city, 29 highway. o_0

[TU_MADRE]

I had a VG in my old D21 4x4 and it got up 23 highway one time otherwise it would struggle to get anything above 20

[AZ89two4Tsx]

My old single slammer S13 got 20mpg in town.

My current BMW 540i/6speed gets about 15 in town, I drive it like it should be driven.

My dd, a Volvo 850 T-5 with 200K consistently gets 24mpg, all city.

[hudy]

1993 Chev Corvette

Usually get around 18-20 combined driving.
Drove from Cincinnati to Ashland and got 30mpg.

1995 Saturn SC2

Usually 28ish. Haven't drivin this car all summer though. I know it can do 35ish with just highway driving.

[float_6969]

'92 Honda Civic
Best - 45mpg highway
Average - 30mpg combined

'90 S13
CA18DET, Silvia conversion, mostly stripped interior (had dash, center console, and 2 seats), FMIC, 3" turbo back, CAI, and tuned the SDS EM4-F for good mileage
34mpg
I honestly think I could do better now if I still had the car and it still ran on gasoline.
Never managed better than 22mpg on the E85, but I never tried to tune it to do better either. I will once I get done putting the motor in the S14.

[Onizuka]

I got 36mpg once recently on my s13 with a stock s14 sr20de on pure highway driving (almost a full tank strait through in one go without stopping), 87 octane. Full interior and equipment except AC compressor. Absolute worst milage has been 27mpg and average is usually 31-32.

[Mr1der]

I see about 27 average in my EP3...I don't baby the car either, but when cruising I tend to do it in the highest gear possible.

[Looneybomber]

Explorer
21mpg best. (years ago, nearly all highway, and with smaller tires)
16-17mpg per tank (mixed driving)
13-14mpg is the worst. (winter driving including warmups)

Altima
25-26mpg per tank mixed. (that's if I drove the whole tank because my wife never clears the tripometer)

R1
Around 50mpg with stock needles and exhaust
Around 45mpg with Ivans needles and Arata full exhaust

600rr
I don't remember the exact mpg, I just remember it being worse than my R1. Doesn't help driving around at 6k rpms.

S2000
23-25mpg per tank consistantly. City or highway.
21mpg was the worst ever. Filled it up in Oct or Nov. parked it all winter, starting it up every 2 weeks and letting it run 10-15min. Refilled again in May,

[JSDEVILDOG29]

2000 chevy suburban 1500 4x4 with 22s always average 11-12 mixed driving but I romp on it. Got a new chip that's supposed to increase that but I romp on it more with the extra power.

1997 240sx auto I always average 22-24 mixed driving but have seen it up to 26 with all highway.
