GS 300/400 Gas mileage?
#92
Lexus Champion
Since I posted in this thread a long time back my foot has gotten a little heavier, and I do more like 80% city driving now. Still my worst milage to date is a hair over 20mpg. I guess I average about 21-21.5 now days. On the highway I get around 24-25 usually.
Either you don't mean full tank literally or you're getting just over 11.5MPG, which is terrible and unless all you do is race your car day in and day out, you probably have something wrong with your fuel system to be getting milage that bad. Per tank doesn't really do justice usually, though... fill up then watch your miles, then fill up again and divide those miles into your trip meter.

Does this sound right?
I like to gas it here and there, but I don't drive like an idiot, and I'm getting about 16-17 mpg. that's all driving around town, average speeds about 30-50mph.

I dont know why im getting such low miles.. My car is a 01 and 430.. how many gallons per tank?
I do a lot of local driving... but yeh with a full tank i get like 220-230 before the low gas light comes on.
I dont even drive the car that hard.
is there a way for me to improve the gas milage?
please help
thanks

if you do all city driving, maybe....? i have tc and lsd, and also 20s, they are all bad for gas mileage, and with mostly local driving i get about 250 miles before it kits the 1/4 tank mark. that still seems to be better gas mileage than you though, maybe you should drive even less aggressive? i don't know, i find getting the car from dead stop is the most gas wasting time.
btw, the tank is 19 gallons

I'm getting about 19.5 MPG average using 93 octane only. But that's with fat 19"s on, so if I correct 4% for tire diameter, I'm getting about 20.25 MPG. And that's with SRT intake. 80% highway though.

Last week on a total tank full i got around 320miles on the tank... I think i could have gotten more if i wasn't flooring it... that was with 93 octane also... I'm very surprised and impressed with these v8 engines on the gas milage.. They do extremly well.. My V8 mustang only got around 250... I'm very happy with the Lex

My 2000 gs3 averages 23.79 mpg on highways. So far i am averaging 427 miles per tank and in between fill ups. I am the type of guy to drive until the needle wants to break off!
