Re: GAS MILEAGE (hyperazn108)
I used to get 28 MPG in general. Since the gas prices went up, i've gotten 23-26 MPG. I was beginning to think my car was finally taking a sh*t on me, but now after hearing this....i might not be the only one. Last thing I need to do is a valve adjustment. After that, i've pretty much tuned up teh car as much as I know how to.

Re: GAS MILEAGE (AznJohn33)
I get 300 to a tank (city driving) so that's about 30 miles per gallon with a/c on and all highway, the most I have gotten is 360....not sure why it is so good...but I am not complaining either!

Re: GAS MILEAGE (hyperazn108)
17-21 city/24-27 highway
2000 gsr all stock, except for stereo
.
Of course, my old chevy went from 28 highway to 34 highway with a change of tires, cheap turing radials with crappy traction. They squeeked every turn, had no wet traction, and sucked all around, except they got me great mileage. So if you're running nice sticky tires, just think about the rolling resistance they provide. You can't have it all, and if you want mileage, there's always the civic hx and/or hybrid.
For those people who say building out the car will lower mileage, I'm not sure about that. My 1979 Triumph Spitfire was getting around 25 stock, but can manage a nice 55 mpg highway now, 34 city. Of course, it received headers, free flowing exhaust, high flow cat, removal of the egr, port and polish (there's a week of my life I will never get back), 2 barrel downdraft carb (single side draft stock, yuck), high power coil, splitfire plugs (I swear by these for old cars), more agressive cam, high compression pistons, complete lower end balance, etc... This list just goes on and on. Of course, that car weights something like 1800 lbs and has no power steering or AC. Incidently, car is for sale, electric blue, under 2k miles on rebuilt motor.

Re: (sabotage7)
95 Turbo GSR. I see around 25 mpg. This is combining highway/city driving. I hit full boost maybe once during a trip, so its usually driven pretty easy unless a mustang or civic with a fart can rolls up on me. Im pretty happy with that mileage, I thought it would be much worse with turbo. I got around 27 mpg with my all motor setup I had last year. So, I didn't lose much.

If I am reading this correct. Your saying that since the gas "prices" have risen your miles per gallon have dropped ...umm the gas price has nothing to do with miles per gallon bud.

Re: (neo1z)
I drove almost 4000 miles in the month of June, filled up 11 times, and never once got less than 32 mpg average for the tank. I got as high as 36, and got as much as 407 miles on one tank. 
<-- GS-R engine completely stock, coming up on 170K miles now.
