i'm about the same in traffic as you.. sometimes up to 11.4l .. homebushbay drive


i managed some how to get ~5.6 on the freeway however a number of times

Looks good to me!
i get about 500k out of a 75 litre tank in my hilux highway driving.. about 400 city haha..
the BRZ will be like motobike fuel efficiant to me!

i'm doing good so far! almost past 1/4 of the fuel meter nearly @ 200km

anyone tried the RON 100 at 'United' petrol stations?

I do roughly 420km per tank, and that's mostly through peak hour traffic.

Cruising on the motorway mostly though you can easily reach 550 (with a bit of spirited driving here and there too)

I've also figured out that a LOT of spirited driving I smashed half a tank on 160km haha..

I personally don't care how much petrol goes in and out, less worrying = more fun

exactly! i would give 25% consumption for 25% extra power :P

I was driving an SS VE Wagon for a while there, managed 2 tanks in 220k haha whoops
Lucky it was a company car and i wasn't paying for the fuel

[aarhdum]

i'm doing pretty well so far?

I get about 9L/100km.. I fill up about half a tank when I run about 260-270ks on manual?

My break-in period was slightly higher... I went for the whole "don't baby the car, rev your engine to break in the seals"

8.4l in city 6.2l highway

Based in Canberra where there is no traffic

I haven't tried RON 100, but I've heard it contains ethanol. Maybe someone can confirm/deny this?

according to what I've researched on other forums people have been saying that RON 100(E10) contains 10% ethanol. is only good if you're in an emergency for fuel, else, try to avoid anything ethanol unless your ride is tuned for it - says people that asked Subie mechanics.

ahha impossible to not get non ethonel gas in maryland,.,, just gotta live with it ....... just another way for companies to make more money...

10% is fine, you wont notice a thing, as long as the car was built in the last 10 - 15 years. previous to that it can be bad.
if its old enough for a steel tank, even worse, if the car survives long enough, you will find a big ol' hole in the tank where its rusted through haha.

I plan on getting mine flashed and running e85.

I'm averaging about 8.2-9.5L/100KMs depending on how I'm driving. It's actually really fuel efficient. Even going up and down a mountain run with spirited driving I average around 9L.
