Good FC

[ryonan]

1 driver
580 km travelled before fuel light comes up
60% highway, 30% federal roads, 10% town driving
occasional hard driving when kena cucuk, overtaking or when feeling :sleep:

On the subject of FC for the Altezza, it depends on where u normally drive and how is yr driving style. As for Ryonan, he spend 60% of his time on the road on the highway which means hardly any traffic jams. This will be the main reason he gets about 12km/L.
As for my car, it is not far off from what Ryonan is getting as I am driving 40-50% on the highway also.

may i ask where you got your FC tuned?

david,

Dont' forget ur L-edition is heavier another few XXkg..
-> 17" maybe fetch u better.

 

[ryonan]

yup guys mine is auto..
but my rims are TRD (probably lighter than stock) but the tyres are bigger than stock ie 235/45 R17.

Actually i was averaging 380km per full tank highway and city driving..
then last month i changed my O2 sensors..immediately improved ym FC.

I did not changed before coz diagnostic say its ok. But i remember Trial said before that if the sensors are on the verge of kaput, it will show OK on the diagnostic..
so if u think ur FC is very bad, worth replacing the O2 sensors.

 

[davidgm16]

wat the cost of replacing that?

 

[aycy]

how much that o2 sensor cost u bro??? i only get 320km fulltank town driving... shit...:rolleyes:

if i still remember correctly bro, when i changed mine it was RM 800+, need to changed 2 of them...

 

[ryonan]

cant remember how much exactly but i think it was abt RM600 per sensor (includes labour and resetting something..i dunno). Auto has two, but manual only one..bought and installed at visions.

but i remember one bro replaced his O2 sensors but still his FC not improve...and another bro said that diagnose tool showed his O2 was faulty, but his FC was still OK..

so i guess cannot guarantee lah whether can improve or not...have to tackle one thing at at time. But if u averaging 320km like bro aycy, then i recommend that u take the risk and change it. Right foot tuning also very important

p/s i also installed bigger fuel pump over a year ago. most bros who installed it that time said their FC improved..but that time my ride was still giving 380km per tank so i did not agree. But now i dono whether the pump helped FC or not. Other bros can comment?

^^ What he just said.

IMHO, i believe to get a good FC, you need to fine tune your car & driving habits...
Currently mine stock standard with pretty good FC....similar with Ryonan (East Coast Travelling), i can reach 720km / 52 litres..13.8km/l...as mentioned not bad for a old car....

 

[griffentai]

b4 i change my sensor when yellow light appear = 260km,after change = 380km good?
