I do a lot more city driving and I get about 250 to the tank lol. I also don't have synchro rev. Mine is base/touring w/o navi
I like the fact of being able to control my rpms instead of the ecu doing so

250 a tank,,,,big difference to my 450 & still have 1/4.
normally don't let it do the synchro downshifting/but during this little experiment,i wanted to not put it in "D"
I was looking harder at the 3.69 gears or 3.90, but cking the worse case cinero on the fuel milage...haven't hardly had past 60 at cruise..very smooth-but did notice oil temp was up about 5 degrees.Enjoy all the comments/ but you must be modded out pretty much or idling a lot city driving,,,250 a tank really sucks.
when i drive mine hard;i still get 24 and up.

What rpms did you shift at every gear? Heavy acceleration? I STEPPED on mine and still got 320 to the tank last time. Gas saving I've gotten 435

26.8 this tank; filled up & gonna drive in manual & not go above 5th gear (1:1) simulation of 4.36:1 diff instead of 3.36.
I'll repost milage next week: turns around 2500@60mph.
Have a good weekend

Did you feel your ears burning the last couple of weeks??

I bet I said "Damn you Jchammond" 20+ times...

I spent the last 2 weeks behaving and still only got 25.1mpg for the tank (~23.2 when just driving) back in my 350 6sp I could get 26+ for a tank and the 370 is rated higher, I could coast clutch in and maintain speed down hills or into stops which I'm not supposed to do in the 7at (but I do have a lifetime power train warranty...)

"Damn you Jchammond" ;)

Just seen that comment burntz. lol
i'm about 180 miles into this tank & can tell the fuel consumption is gonna be more/just not sure how much...normal driving to & from work...does approach 3k rpm @70 & sits on 2500@55....i been keeping rpm's above 2k all the time-even a little hard driving included.
i'll know by Tuesday or so.
Don't know if i included that i only use "ethanol free 93" pure gas! only thing that's been in tank past 55k miles.

Base/Touring....so no wings or spoilers for extra drag.

What year is your ~Z~ Raj?
i heard Nissan put a 3.92:1 diff ratio in the 14',15' manual tranny cars.
That matches the numbers you posted,2500rpm@64mph 6th gear.

It's a 2014 bro, I'll have to check my 2012 manual and see if you're right lol, I thought they were the same but I never noticed lol

I can tell for sure this tank is gonna be a good bit less mpg.
been averaging 2500-3000 rpm's all the time.
punched it a few times/but mostly cruising....over 250 miles into
this tank.....not to sure if i want a 4.36:1 diff.
i'll know milage by Tuesday 29th.

Keep me posted on the mileage. What year is yours? You think the 12 will have less gas mileage than the 14?
