I have a 90 stoxk GXE.. and it seems like my gas mileage really bites... anyways just wondering if yall can tell me what I can do to help the gas mileage out ( besides not driving at 5000 rpms at every chance )

 

haha welcome to the club... same model too, im gettin around 250 miles a tank, pretty ****ty!

 

... i dont think i am even getting that... maybe 200 for a tank , no good

 

I have owned about 10 different vehicles over the past 7-8 years, and every vehicle is the same...Mileage all depends on how you drive, and when you drive. What I mean is, if you keep you car properly maintained, you are going to get the best possible mileage. Do you guys drive city or highway, hilly or flat, 5 miles at a time or 50 miles at a time, do you let it warm up in the winter before driving? In my Maxima, just driving to work and around town, I get 230 to 250 miles to a tank, filling up at about 1/4 tank. If I take a road trip, it is easily 370 to 420 miles to a tank. If you want real good mileage, and just drive in the city, trade the Max in on a little 4 banger. Just my opinions and experiences.

 

My experience: I went from 270 mptank to 370 mpt. I did this through simple mods like intake, exhuast (straight pipe), then I got a fuel pressure riser, NGK plugs and wires, and then bought a Jacobs ICE pack. This is on a 5sp.

 

where'd ya get the NGK wires?

 

You should be able to get them anywhere that carries NGK. The odd thing is though, that Advance carries NGK but can't get the wires, so there's an exception. I bought them at a place that is now out of buisiness. I had one "detach" at the end, contacted NGK and they replaced the set, called it a Satisfaction Gaurentee.
