zhoodyx Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 do you think this is posible on a full tank of petrol with sensible driving in a N/A Quote
Daffy Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 I think Zeds' have a 70 litre tank. If so that equates to 15.38 gallons. So you need to average 13.65mpg. In short, yes!! Quote
300ZX_666 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 do you think this is posible on a full tank of petrol with sensible driving in a N/A I just done more than that on a tank with driving in a sensible manor, if you want it confirming, Hollandrob81 will back me up on it. Quote

zhoodyx Posted May 11, 2011 Author Posted May 11, 2011 unlees your planning on going the kinkardin bridge way Quote
phutumsch Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 I think Zeds' have a 70 litre tank. If so that equates to 15.38 gallons. So you need to average 13.65mpg. In short, yes!! 60 litres methinks Daffy, that's all I could get in when I filled up to the brim recently :biggrin: Not sure if the touring estates have a 70 litre tank for more range :clown: Quote
JaiKai Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Google maps give you 74.9 miles from my house in Troon to knockhill racing! Using my iPhone so not sure which route it takes us. Try using google see what it gives you ! Quote
zhoodyx Posted May 11, 2011 Author Posted May 11, 2011 no your right..thats the kinkardine bridge route going the other route adds another 30 miles or so on to our jorney but i thought we were gona go and meet everyone else..but then again iv not slept much and been working like f00k so that could explain alot Quote
Yowser Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 (edited) At a a steady pace you could do that on half a tank ! 400 miles on a full tank is still only 25mpg, and closer to 30mpg is easily achievable. A full tank aint cheap though - £90-£100 (depending on price of fuel) , 210 miles should cost you about £50 All Z's have a 72 litre tank.....not all Z's have a reliable fuel gauge though.

Are those mpg's you quote for an n/a? I don't get anywhere near that, even on a motorway run. Slicktop TT in my case. Quote

On a long run, taking it steady. Although technically the TT is more economical at a given cruising speed than the NA, and many of us have seen 30mpg over a long steady motorway journey, its harder to achieve overall becuase anytime you accelerate and enter boost it gulps the fuel down. Plus that go pedal is far too addictive :) Quote

I probably photoshopped them too big, they are 18" Edited May 11, 2011 by Yowser Quote
Gio Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Best I've done in my NA Auto is 28.5mpg! In the past year, 359 on a tank. Quote
