I get 18/100 on petrol :cry:

this is my 2nd engine, my first one got the same figures for normal driving, but towed at about 14/100. a mate of mine who had an MQ with the sd33t got 12/100 normal driving... in saying that, i have heard of the old girls doing 20odd/100 from normal driving...

Yep, worse i got was about 22/100. right foot stayed buried and it actually managed to find the governor in 5th.

i added 35's and now it gets about 17/100 on the same trip.

Its a sd33t 3inch BL, etc.

I think you might find that it is now an inaccurate reading because your speedo will now be out because of the 35s

if its the same trip, i rekon he could work it out fairly well still. changing tyre sizes doesnt change the distance between point A and point B. he will still have travled just as far as when he made the trip on 33's

No distance doesnt change but reading on trip meter will be less, about 10%

80 series gets 28lt per 100kms on gas. All of those k's are around town and turning 35's, yes I have allowed for the 10% my speedo is out.
If on petrol it was about 26lts per 100kms for that same thing.

Wouldn't trade it for the world as I love having a big powerfull car that over takes diesels up every hill :armsup:
