350zlew Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Just wondered what mpg you guys with supercharged 350z are getting? Not that bothered if it goes down tbh as if i wanted an economical car i would have brought a micra!! But am just curious as to what i would get mpg wise at about 400bhp :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I get 6mpg on track 17 - 19 "normal road" plus 1l of deionised water per 100 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I once averaged 10mpg with mine on a motorway journey Car really wasn't running right at that time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Mcgoo Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I get about 21 mpg on average. That's mainly A - roads and a bit of town driving. I did get 24 mpg driving to from Norfolk to Newquay in the rain, but as Keyser says easily single figures on track. But SO worth it!! :teeth: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 But SO worth it!! :teeth: + Lots I'm running a Vortech V2 with a few supporting mods on a built engine mate All in here if your bored for a few hours http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/52481-project-zee-business-all-change-17th-jan/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
350zlew Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Nice haha mine may possibly be a tad better as im only going for 400bhp maximum but sounds like a blast haha! My standard z is lethal in the rain as it is haha bet yours is mental! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren-B Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I haven`t a clue what mine does I just fill it up when it gets low. Besides it all depends how you drive it My standard z is lethal in the rain as it is haha bet yours is mental! Perhaps you should sort out a few supporting mods before even thinking about going FI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theheff Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) having been in the beast i would say the low mpg is worth it. if only i had the money to go F/i in the first place Edited February 26, 2013 by theheff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrumbMC Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I get worse figures than most of you and mine is standard. 8.9mpg is what i recorded for a full tanks usage at Oulton Park. a full tanks road driving average is usually about 18 but never above 20. both these figures obtained using the trip computer. My car is strictly a hoon-mobile though and it usually gets warmed up, taken out enthusiastically, a quick cool-down round the block then left until the following weekend. So I guess it's more where & how you drive it than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizard Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Haha thanks mate pretty juicy then! How many horses you making? :-) I'm at 468WHP without the NOS Your as bad as Wizard lol Steady there grandpa... I NEVER get anywhere near 20mpg (living in London). Usually around 15mpg. I remember I drove to France last September and thought the car was amazingly economical. I filled her up when I got back and calculated I got 19mpg average!

4RE Leather Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 There is a free app for iPhone called Fuel Economy Calculator. I think you guys would be surprised just how much you were getting by using this app. I am getting 25mpg in winter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Mcgoo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I calculate mine using simple fuel used (at the pump)% how many miles done since last fill. The on-board computer wasn't that accurate in the first place. But with the larger injectors its no where near!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
