mpg?? yeah SIAL
 

It drank half a tank of V power on a 190 mile journey down the M1..... does that sound alright???

PS: thats better than my old imprezzi sport:wonder: :wonder: :wonder: or is the tank in this one bigger????

its a 95 WRX type RA

SIAL :Suspiciou

read the topic:poke: couldnt care less :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:

No idea of tank size but the gauge on my 95 WRX doesnt seem calibrated correctly, the first "half" of the tank lasts a lot longer than the second "half" of the tank. Mine could of cause be knackered.

i always assumed the fuel tank might not be completely square, as in it might be wider at the top so has more fuel in that half.

I get around 140 miles for the first "half" of the tank and only about 100 for the second, Scoobs must have a funny shaped fuel tank..

I recently got 200 miles out of the first half a tank on a motorway run, and that was cruising at sensible motorway speeds.

Its just a shame that the second half doesn't last as long .. (which is typical for most cars I think)

Consider yourself lucky our car last few fillups gets 150-170 to a TANK :eek:because its running to rich :lol:

I thought RA's only had a 40 litre tank :wonder: mine does

probably..... it was nearly empty and took me 39£ something to fill it with V power at 97p or 98p:Suspiciou


and yeah upper half of tank is bigger than lower,.... i noticed that in my other car as well, which used to do 200 then 100

I only get 250 miles ish out of a full tank on my Bugeye!

Crikey,i'd be happy with that.On my old type r v5 i could get 240/250 mpt with standard 440 injectors:luxhello: .

Nowadays with 960's:norty: 145mpt,the price you pay:D

Ice cream cone shaped tank. ;)

400 motorway miles in mine out of 1 tank hull to newquay :norty:
not driving miss daisy either

No it doesnt. All early cars have a 50 litre tank with later cars having a 60 litre tank. No Imprezas have a 40 litre tank.

my RA definatly dont, i`ve managed to get 45 litres in when its been really low, and i usually get about 180 miles from 40 litres of v power

my haynes subaru book states all turbos have a 60 liter tank

After a Sunday blast round the North Pennines with the WYIOC, I have managed 325 miles on my last tank full, 57 litres = 26 mpg.

dunx

P.S. Just gone de-cat, used to only get around 310 !

i only managed 200 miles on a tank on the same run as dunx :wonder:

130 mile for £20 worth of fuel

Then it is wrong; many Imprezas books are snided with mistakes. Later Classics have a larger tank, early ones have a 50 litre tank.

You should of re-named this; Lamp posts to the gallon!

LOL

Haven't the pikeys started nicking them yet ?

dunx

P.S. coops, you need about 150 bhp more to manage these figures :wonder:

This is spot on. Also, I didn't know Haynes did an Impreza manual :confused:

I think scrap is down at the mo but I know what you mean. I went to Mobberley when it was at it's peak and some pikeys had nicked all the grid thingy's on most of the roads! Apparently it costs around £200 of the tax payers money to replace.

Ba$tard$!

yes its title is you and your impreza turbo

It's not a regular one though, is it?

would be nice to have 260bhp:cry: , but there may be a vf35 winging it's way to me :)

it a book telling you about the history of the impreza and subaru plus the spec of just about every model made. it also goes it to bit of detail about maintaining and modifying a impreza. it also has a list a websites in the back and scoobynet is their among them.

That book is very much of it's time, around 2001 IIRC.

Much of the info in there is about as accurate as a blind sniper.

The Brian Long books are far better.
