Celica's Fuel Economy, MPG and 100km/L Options

[vile_v]

Alright I hope this clears up any misconceptions on what our cars was getting. Some of the people on this board have gotten outrageous fuel economy, which in turn has discourage other members into believing how bad of a condition their car is in.

First off, fuel economy has many factors that effect it. Some of these factors are age, health, weight, how you drive, model (to some degree) So please take these things into consideration when reading this chart.

I hope this information has been of some used.

Its not my typical DIY but its pretty damn useful. aha

- my celica was getting 12.8L/100kms (I had a half a dime size hole in the front pipe) it was recently replaced with another used pipe. I am now getting 10.8L/100kms mixed of highway and city driving + lead foot aha LESSON TO LEARN: FIX YOUR EXHAUST LEAKS!!!

When i use my 17" rims with 225/45 tires my speedometer gives me the actual GPS speed. When i drive 120 km/h it's really 120 km/h. When i use my winter rims 15" with 195/60 (or so) tires then i drive about 130 km/h on tacho which is a 120 km/h gps speed.

With the 4AGE 20V blacktop my mpg is the same as with the 7AFE about 28+ mpg with 17". This is mainly short distances and 120 km/h on the highway and sometimes take it to 8200 rpm . The best mpg i ever did was with the blacktop. A 350 km drive and it was almost 36.5 mpg!

I'm really curious if the blacktop will be even better on mpg when my C160 gearbox is in
