My regular trip is Syd (north end) to Canberra and back, all up is 590 km and I can do that on 60 litres at 117kph on cruise control. My average speed showing on the computer is 74kph which has not been reset since new I have just reached 100,000 km.

Running just over 250rwkw and the fuel consumption improved after I had the unijip fitted! (actual consumption based on fuel put in tank rather than the crap the computer tells you). I get the impression that the standard factory tune varies significantly and that many report factory cars running with black sh*t all over the rear bumper from running too rich. I suspect that the weight of the right foot and the significant variances in tune are giving very wild fuel consumption figures.

With my new tune and a very heavy right foot, my last tank lasted 320kms. I dropped 1/2 a tank in 1hr of spirited driving! But jeez I love the power, you pay for it, but it's fun!

Think about it, a good 2 stroke go kart hire place will sting you 50 bucks for 1/2 an hour, or less even :spoton: , but I can 1hr of HSV bashing for 35 bucks! :blink:

That's probably the best way to look at it...

For me I get around 450KM city driving and around the 530Km mark highway (however highway is cruise control on :msm: )...
