Ha ya that was it. But more like, I was suprised by how similar after I looked up the data. It didnt occur to me by just looking at the two cars. that was my end point, nothing beyond that. Other people had points based on what the title made them think about but not me.
More long term car industry stuff. Because the miata and e30 were actually around at the same time for a year, and then 23 years later the miata almost is an e30.
thats about it. Got worked up looking stuff up for a troll that really had nothing to do with anything.
Whats tough is that even with valid points for a discussion, its all just flaming. Not what I had in mind, but I took each post at face value and I tried to come up with a fact or point in it to respond to. And flamed back.
Just showed some data shared some opinions. Some people are on that level some arent.
what sucks is, I still see kershaw posted but you ignored it. Im not super interested in figuring out the exact gas mileage of all e30s at the moment.
But Im sure I gave enough head starts on where to look for anyone whos interested or just trolling.
as I remmeber I was just comparing my old car to a car thats sold today as new and was impressed by my old car
( granted it was compared to a pretty bad new car)
exact gas mileage deserves a whole new thread and people who know how to look things up thouroughly.
Its actually been about 6 months since i went on a road trip with my e30 to see its theoretically highway miles.
I have a new o2 sensor beyond that theres nothing to suggest it should get any worse.
dude I can take a picture of the obc getting in the 30s in gas mileage really easy. Thats not going to help you in your quest.
when I got 28 mpg it was in 2 different 1000 mile trips. So getting the best obc picture doesnt matter. Because I do have pictures of my obc with over 30 mpg. I can reset it and do it again. As a matter of fact I think I can get it to go up to 40 driving less than a mile. Just find a hill.
And my goal was to get over 30 mpg, like ive seen dozens of other m20 owners get.
Do you take medication? Is there someone who watches you during the day to check to see if youre bothering people?
I dont know what to say other than Ive seen.... aproxomately.... 20 m20 owners claim they get over 30 mpg. some unlikely most pretty likely. Im tired of looking up things for you, do you know how to look up things for you?
I dont care about you dude. Ive got a question for you rocket scientist. Where is the ignore function on this board?
get out of my threads. Go research what you need to know to become educated without any of my help weve all had enough of you.
edit aww peace. I finally figured out how to turn this idiot off. I wont see any more posts by this guy.
heres one for your m42 I would guess theres an m20 here on this forum but maybe not. Most m42 owners got higher gas mileage than you did. in fact the highway mpg is 29
Nope kershaw.... pull your head out of your butt dude. Youre useless til you pull your head out of your butt.
I didnt change any injectors. Its remotely possible the po did but i doubt it. I picture them as very dirty and only getting dirtier.
HAAHHAAHHA
Are you positive I havent asked you to stop posting in any of my threads because youre a troll?
I dont care about you go away.
Wow, you guys must have some miracle OBC shit going on there. My well sorted/low milage m42's have recorded no more than 27 mpg at 65 mph repeatedly between Roseburg and Portland, and since I don't have a MPG button I have to calculate it the old fashioned way.
ya my record I had 2 passengers too, and the stretch of the 199 is not ideal, but the stretch of the 5 is ideal for max gas mileage.
I reset the battery etc.
there are many threads in the bmw forums ( and all car forums everywhere) where people show what gas mileage they get.
Its a less than scientific method for you to tell me what gas mileage I get based on your car. Especially when you actually dont even have the same car.
an m20b27 will get those numbers. i'd consistently see 28-30mpg in my eta. so if you have a "325" you would get that mpg. but of course it has a whopping 127hp. so it would destroyed by a miata that much faster.
you're not changing r3v's outlook on you whatsoever.
Are you sure I didnt ask you to stop posting in my threads.
Although you did definitely come up with some information with your little 2 sentence flame, which is what Im looking for.
I dont care about you or what you think thanks. Theres so many names to memorize but I can definitely spot someone whos just a troll.
Just friendly car chat going on here. People who dont have that capability are excused. I think people who are interested in what gas mileage the b25 gets should use a search function and look up what gas mileage are you getting. Definitely people got better gas mileage than me.
When compared to a new miata whatever you are getting is less. But not a whole lot less actually I was suprised to find out when I looked it up.
the reason is theres an epa listing thats totally off. I did take the time to explain why its off but dont want to cause I dont care that much.
i dont put a lot of weight into what gas mileage people think a b25 gets when they dont own one. And obviously, I dont want to spend a lot of time with people who dont have the mental horsepower to discuss, just argue and name call.
So youre eliminated thanks for your time.
Definitely a side track. Sort of a lower communication way to try to introduce oneself to a discussion is to just try and find a irrelevant point and contradict it then insult. A troll.
I do waste my time insulting trolls back til it gets old. Im crazy like that.
