Nic Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Quite shocked, my first 40 quid only did 110 miles ouch! That is around 15mpg (by my very rough calculations) which is quite low, was this short runs and lots of boost? I'd keep an eye on mpg's as you should be averaging quite a bit more than that. It could be the oxygen sensor is not working correctly (it is a service part with a limited life span), if the sensor is duff then the ECU will default to a rich mixture, which has a significant effect on mpg's.

I'll fill it one day lol Sounds about right Danny, first week of my ownership I got similar figures, it also "broke down" fortunately near Cramlington service station and had to call Jurgen out, turned out I had blown an intake pipe clean off from giving it to much right boot after years of it tootling about in Japan Like you I was just trying it out after all lol!

Guest supraintoon Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Better late than never Eventually getting round to posting up pictures of my completed Supra. Now BPU'd, another big thanks to JM Imports for doing another top job. Car feels much more alive now - more responsive, great sound and a lot more shove! No more major plans for the time being, other than to enjoy driving the car Cheers, Simon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
