Despite the fact that my final plans never came to be, I wouldn't at all mind having it back in the form reflected by the above thread based on present gas prices. I once measured 50 miles per gallon with the old girl.

 

I think what you did with the shell was even crazier, but yeah thats pretty funny.

BTW Im still rocking your tailights

 

no your not stupid. i was actually thinking of doing the same thing

 

.....another local guy has done pretty much the same thing.

He's getting over 40mpg last I heard - with 4-lug and all.....

not so much a trend but its a good way to not visit the gas station as often. just drop the B18C5 before a track day.

lol. I dont think its worth it, I get about 35 mpg now, putting in a d would get me maybe 40-43, I'd get bored with the d, you couldnt even get on it if you wanted to.

 

Damn Jim how you getting 35 MPG? I get 26-27 when I stay out of it.

Time for a tune-up man. Or your foot is too damn heavy. It takes alot of ragging to get under 30mpg.

I drive 120 a day mostly higway miles, 10-12 of those miles are city stop light traffic. But I just drive, dont get on it, shift anywhere from 3-4k and go no faster than 75. Mon., Tues., and Weds are my fuel economy days, Thurs and Fri I let her purrr.

 

Ah most of yours are highway whereas mine are all city. I try not to get on it and for 2 full tanks of gas I made sure not to get into Vtec and still only 27.5 MPG. Maybe it is time to do that.

 

tis why the 85 hatch is mah DD....treats me well at almost 35 mpg!
