Default milage

Hey Guys. I have not reset anything on my "on board computer" since I got the car. I was wondering hoiw everyone else is doing with milage. I have 7,000km on the car and am Averaging 13.1 L/100km and get this...33km/h. Hahahaha. Most of my driving has been in the winter to and from work in rush hour. I'll bump up those numbers as soon as I do some highway cruising this summer.

Wow,
I'm getting pretty crappy milage, but I guess its all the idling sitting in traffic and stop and go city driving.

Shows the higher rpm the shift, the more fuel economy the Z is ?
What's "WOT" ? wife-on-top ?

Sorry.. it was typo. 13.8... hehe

WOT -> wide open throttle


You know what? the capacity of fuel tank in 350Z is 75L. Isn't it too big? When oil price went rocket high, I spent 65 bucks to fiil it up.(sunuko 94) it's better now.

Recently, I completed a 2200 km trip and for the last half I averaged 107 kph and 9.1 l/100km with a 5AT and cruise control. During one stretch, the computer indicated 8.7 l/100km! How do I convert that to mpg (imperial)?

Default mileage

Good thing our hours and revolutions are at least the same!

kph x .621 = mph

l x .264 = us gal.

l x .22 = imp. gal.

km/l x 2.352 = mpg us

km/l x 2.825 = mpg imp


Hi Steve. Now go to Acessories and get the calculator out. You'll have to invert, or reverse the wires or your Z's pod.
