Hmph. I've had my Z for about two weeks or so now and I'm consistently getting about 14-15mpg...I drive mixed city (70%) & freeway (30%) and since I'm still breaking-in my engine in I remain below 70mph. I use Chevron 91 and I always shift at 3.5-3.8k rpms and always use 6th gear in the freeway. Does my mileage start increasing after break-in or something?

60-65mph in 6th gets you the best mileage.

I have done the Math on mine once. It worked out the same. Now lats time I made this trip it did not have any mods and I got an Avg of 22.5 Mpg @ 78 Mph.
I have added the Mrev 2 and 5/16 spacer with the K&N Series 63 filter an Nismo CatBack. Even my around town mileage has gone up.
