Mr Singh

Bumpage on this thread.

I thought i would let you know of last weeks progress.

I've completed 160miles on £28.50 worth of Optimax. Whats my average MPG?

If someone could post the equation i would be greatful :)

I'm thinking i need to get the car to a specialist to get it checked over, it is guzzling the fuel

Blimey! 27mpg sounds awesome to me :)

Well, what ever gives me better performance to price ratio i suppose.. i have company van i drive daily, altezzas just a toy

I'll have to look into the cost of fitting, that will be a killer i bet

TDI do turbo kit for around £1800+ fitting.. Supercharger would be better as i wouldn't suffer from lag and massive increase in fuel consumption

This cars gonna be the end of me :P

Lastnight i was severly hacked off my cousin left me in his S3 :o I want more POWER!

Conditions were wet, back end was dying for traction, engine was cold.. so i guess i was disadvantaged there..

Fuel consumption still worrys me, i reach half a tank on about 130miles using optimax. Whats that in mpg?

Bad luck mate.

Could of been worse, but still a bummer.

I was in Leicester last night and driving out of a bend and back end drifted out (raining) traction control didn't really help the slide but i managed to get it under control otherwise it would have just 360'd! i was lucky no one else behind me!

Hope you get it sorted mate, Happy new year!

Blimey! if they were at £20 for both back and side put me down for a set now!! :)

I felt bit like you when i had a VR6.

But when i drove an IS200 i was less than impressed with performance.. thats why i bought an Altezza RS200 :zee:

Can you put me down for Pre 2001 spec mats (Black)

Let me know about payment :)

I take it these will work on Altezzas too?

Well i reset it. Only immediate change i noticed was the idle speed has dropped. Seems to idle at around 500-600rpm, so not good :( stalled 2 times

I'll see how fuel is like this week..

Not been on the forum long.. But Happy Birthday chap!

:zee:

Hi Colin, thanks for that.

Yes 82p/ltr

I thought it was be grizzley on fuel..

If its a simple as disconnecting the Battery for few min's then i will give it a go, unless anyone else knows different. Would i notice any difference with the cars response?

TIA! :)

Guys..

How do i work out mpg ? I just get this feeling my cars guzzling the fuel too much!

£20 worth of Optimax - 119miles driving around town (Milton keynes mostly roundabouts and dual carrage ways) not being heavy on the throttle..

Can you reset the ECUs on RS200s?

TIA

How do i fit these in my RS200? is there any exsisting loom in the car ready to except electric seats?

i have found some through a salvage yard, but want to know where i stand with the wiriing. In reality it looks like case of 12v supply..

TIA,

Am.

Interesting..

What do you normally get on a full tank of fuel?

Do you know what ron optimax is?

Unless the stations i went to was still labelled 4 star. I will use optimax though...

yeah i used 4 star.

i'll have to look out for shell stations.. bit bleak in MK just BP stations everywhere!

What ron is the best for the 3S-GE engines?

cheers guys!

I see. How about if i got an Alpine INA 333r navi system? surely i could link that directly to the monitor?

sweet cheers scotty! I'm kinda liking the look of the Altezza badge and TRD mesh grill

Might end up selling that stuff your sending me

Right..

Another topic :D

My altezza came with sat nav already installed, but as you know its in japanese - no good to me!

So, my question is how change it to UK spec and hook a dvd player up?

This will be a demo ICE car for our company - so your info could be rewarded in a group buy!

Thanks for any info,

Am.

Right..

I've had my Altezza for 3 days now :D and clocked up some miles over the weekend.

Whats everyone getting out of a full tank in terms of miles? What fuel do you use?

I did about 250miles on £41 worth of 4 star. I was driving it hard from time to time so i wouldn't expect good mpg! but wondered what everyone elses gets..

Cheers,

Am.

I'm in the same boat. I have an Altezza RS200 however, which will be having 8x19s fitted at the same time.

Don't want any gap between arch and tyre... well very little if you catch my drfit :P

Hi guys, had to re regsiter due to the forum having problems.

I'm after a RS200. Was told to contact Supercharger IS-340. Never had any joy, replied once and that was it.

Anyone know any other contacts?
