My 1973 super beetle gets around 20-25mpg if im lucky, god damn I need a skyline, id spend the same amount gas but Id be going so much faster. Carbureted cars ugh...
with cams a 2.7 liter and hks gt2540 turbos i got 400 k per tank on highway and 200 in the city if im not boosting alot:x its like 36l/100k andits like 6.5mpg
When I bought my gtr the flow fuel light was on and I filled it with over 67liters and on my last fill up it flickered on my way to the gas station and it took 64.7l.
I did what I like to call, "The Midnight Run." Fill tank with fuel, get on highway and just drive till she's empty. I was assuming that my car would burn threw the fuel considering I usually only see about 220 kms per tank so after changing o2 sensor I decided to see what highway mileage was like. After 97kms or about a hour of darkness into the middle of nowhere on the highway, I realized my fuel gauge was still at full. Hadn't moved. It's amazing that rolling around in fifth gear at 110 kms an hour can save on fuel. So I turned around and drove home.
Then again I did do some drafting. I managed to get 300kms to that very tank!

Hmm, yea I hate having to do those midnight runs, where I actually wanna empty out my gas to fill up on gas when it's cheap, and the damn fuel gauge needle won't budge :hit_head:
