LiamR Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Just got back from picking up my first 350, what an awesome drive- it will take days for this grin to disappear!! In total it was a 270 mile drive, I filled up on tesco super (whatever its called) alledgedly 99ron @1.39 per litre, and only used half tank meaning the ride back I got around 38 mpg, outstanding!!!!

4RE Leather Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 yes well done mate. Awsome fuel prices for 99 oct as Shell V-max or power cost me 146 yesterday. Incidently seeing as someone mentioned MPG. Since I had the GTM suoer charger fitted I noticed the MPG on the computer climb dramatically. It actually said on a 105 mile trip my average speed was 47 MPH and my Average MPG was 60. Surely this cant be right although I have to admit if i drive like a granny it goes a loy further than b4. Sorry for high jmping the thread and good luck with the mods as you know you wanna:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK-Ultra Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I read this on another thread that might help explain the funny numbers............ Southernspeed wrote: Dblock wrote: better fuel consumption? I thought it would be much worse? I know your increasing efficiency but I thought it would be worse on fuel. I know! But I used to struggle to keep it in the 20's now after 200 miles I'm showing 35.3 mpg. Djtimo wrote: lol... you know your OEM fuel PG Gauge does not work now! It takes a signal off injector pulse width and now you have larger injectors pulse width for a given amount of fuel is less and the gauge reads high. My gauge reads in the 40's mpg when I worked out 23mph in reality! yes well done mate. Awsome fuel prices for 99 oct as Shell V-max or power cost me 146 yesterday.

KyleR Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Thats a nice Zed, my only change, (apart form getting it sprayed in a faster colour, like black ) would be to rip that front lip off and replace it with the Nismo N1. Good luck with the car and to the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bems Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Congrats on the Zed purchase. I bet it sounds great when you fire it up in that street with the sound bouncing off the houses either side! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
