hey guys,
after searching around i couldn't find anything like this,
model make, Tyre size, headers or extractors ect,
the point be so we can average out what fuel consumption the
little zooks should be getting,
and what you have done to improve your fuel consumption,
they are pretty thirst for such a small car,
but how awesome are they?


i have a 89 swb carby with 63000ks, on 30 inch muddies, extractors, whinch, snorkel
on 40L i get 3000ks,
40 x 3.0 = 13.3 per hundred

L x Ks = L per hundred

any way, i hope we can find the average on this,
just interesting to see what people are getting!
cheers jordan

still way to many variables...

do you drive in traffic, hills, highway, rev the shit out of it in every gear on every change etc.

also is that 300kms accounting for the extra kms covered due to the larger tyres?

EDIT: what shep said

I've no idea about what we should be getting. But here's mine if it helps.
97 G16b SWB Soft top Vit. Stock gearing, Tyres are slightly bigger than stock.
I get 10L/100km on the highway and far less around town.
But that's with lots of short trips with a cold engine getting the smeg revved out of it.
