now avaialbe on 3 CD's from K-Tel

 

B16A/Sunoco94/420km

 

I don't have a hybrid but I just wanted to say that the word "kilometerage" sounds funny.

 

Yeah... "kilometerage" and "boost is a tap away" are copyrights of TCC.:tongue2:

 

1.6L "RTX" sohc (Duy stop laughing)/Sunoco/40L tank/650 highway when I went to Detriot. Hell, just over 1/2 tank to get there (400km)
+1

 

Whoa that's nutz man!

 

And what's so funny about kilometerage?? I believe that's the correct term. The Aericans have "mileage" and we have "kilometerage".

 

I probably could have gottin' 800+ if I did only 95 - 100 km all the way there, and didn't try to race some of the other guy's in the car club that I went with! (we were going to the "WOODWARD DREAM CUISE" in Detroit....Nut's!!! ie... 35,000 + Cars (not counting the parked ones) 1.2 -1.5 million people over the weekend. I got picks to prove it (but not enough post to post it yet...stay tunned...) Crazy stuff, I'm going again this year and need some poeple to share accomodations with me I'll bring pics to the next meet for you to see! (it's held every year in the third weekend in august. There were only a hand full of imports ie. civic's, tegs....down there last year(it's "BIG 3" Country down there). It would be nut's if every one went!) They thought my car was WAAAAYYY cool, If they saw some of the cars up here.....

 

i do a tad over 300 tank filled to the **** with b16eh and skunk ecu no cat and cx exhaust

 

My car: '93 cx w/power nothing.
Motor: b18b
Wheels/Tires: enkei RP02 205/45/16
Tank size: 32L
Gas: 89-91 octane (shell/petro or sunoco)

ok... now with a broken mid pipe i got 375 kms ALL city driving

now that i've fixed my exhaust, i'm seeing exactly how much i get

 

I got to Cochrane from Toronto (~800 km) on one tank of gas in a 2003 Civic Hybrid (1.3 iDSI with IMA) on a cold January day with Winter tires, trunk with another full set of wheels and tires, two people and a bunch of stuff in the back seat.

The rated capacity is 50 litres but you can realistically only put in 43-45 litres (ask any 7th Gen owner). The car was practically new. I am sure after being more broken in, with the stock tires, less stuff, warmer temperatures and city driving (it get's better fuel economy in the city) it would have gone further.

Great mileage.

P.S. Jugglez, I know this isn't the type of "Hybrid" you had in mind but it is still on-topic. I am talking about a Civic Hybrid, right?

 

My old 93 hb si with GSR motor , catback/headers- 91 octane, 300km in the city on 40 liters, it sucked on gas

 

 

93 civic dx coupe
JDM D16A ps, intake, exhaust
94 octane sunoco
400 km city/highway

 

Are you guys sure your motors are running right? Maybe your super agressive drivers!

I've got:

92 cx, hatch,

B18B OBDI.

I get 510 kms to a tank, in the city. If I'm on the highway, I can squeeze out 540 kms. I drive at 120kms regularly.

This is good, I know. Maybe its cause I got the LS tranny. 3000 rpm at 120 km/h. I don't even want a GSR tranny, if I want high revs on the highway I simply bang it into 4th...

I always use low octane cheap esso gas. "87" or "89" I tried sunoco 97 and no effect, maybe only slightly better mileage.

As a note, before the swap, I was getting 580kms with the stock 1.5 sewing machine.
