No pics until it's on.

Anyone have both OEM burgers they don't want/need?

Haboob · 03-01-2013, 06:24 PM

Filled up last night after pushing 402mi and 24mpg out of it... nice, but I didn't get to have any fun. Not sure I'll be doing that again.

Also, finally had my friend take some photos today at the park (she may not be pro, but compared to me and my phone camera she's pro).

Hope to have them soon!

Added third hood pin. Tweaked the fuel system.

So, no steering lock thread from you?

These are sad days indeed.

Hahaha! Nope not from me... Now I seriously doubt the robot from the future tried to stop me to pull the fuse today was sent by you just because you like to see those threads?

Yup. I saw too many those steering lock failure threads lately. Scary... So I finally did it today before it's too late. And I strongly suggest others to do this fix as soon as possible!

I get about 23.8 average with my driving in Phoenix.. Then again 95% of my driving is highway and at 80mph. I do romp on it the other 5% of the time though. What do you get with your "normal" driving?

According to the car (which my last one was my own calculation) it's about 22. I'll have to calculate it this time 'round.

I was just trying to see how high I could push the mpg, which wasn't really much higher than normal, lol.

my fuel iphone app tells me I'm averaging 24 or so over last 10 tanks, but i live in thin air so better mpg

24 average isn't bad for how much fun the Z is and I never find myself driving conservatively to save a little extra MPG. I think I am going to let the MPG calculator run for a few tanks too and see what it comes up with overall.
