Cool Several Factors...

... When I first got my Z, I drove her to Houston and Back, all Interstate - I saw 27mpg on the Computer... Not Kidding. Ambient Temps was about 100°F, driving at 70mph on Cruise Control. She was bone stock back then and I was very easy on her because of the Break-in period...

Since then...a few mods...

I got used to the car, Love the K&N CAI+the Fast Intentions Deep Rich Exhaust sound which = Outstanding throttle response, and Love the Eibach Sway Bars which = outstanding steering response...

Result... can't keep my foot off the throttle, can't get my mpg past 18 -20 at best...

Oh well, I certainly did not buy a Z to drive her like a Prius-of-S#!T...

bone stock manual. goes down to average 17mpg when i drive like a punk. normal tank (balance of mild driving and every so often opening it up a bit) = 20 mpg. road trips get me somewhere around 27 mpg.

Yeah you're right, what was I thinking cruising down the highway in 6th gear for 300miles. I shouldve been 3rd or 4th near redline the whole time to avoid getting decent mpg

Just did the conversion from l/100km.

I'm getting about 17.5mpg.

I always shift at 2-3k (3.5-5k when I want to go fast) is that why my mpg is so low? I also do very little highway driving.
