datzenmike Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Passed 2K miles on my Canby trip. About 2/3 way home. Total gas mile average is 34 Imperial mpg. That's got to be over 30 US. 2 Quote Link to comment
ArchetypeDatsun Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Which 200sx had a solid axle and rear disc brakes?? .. I thought it was a 79, but is it the second generation 200sx?... and that F10 is so cool!!! All 77-79 200sx have solid axles. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Home from Canby after 2 weeks and 23 hours. To Canby about 550 miles, to Calgary another 800. To Near Fort St John's in the Peace River district another 750 aprox. Mileage 34.2 or 28.4 US MPG. Home was another 1,100 miles at 27.66 US MPG. This is with a 4.11 rear end. Also has the retro fitted L16 exhaust and '79 intake with water cooled runners on the newly replaced head gasket and home made down pipe just completed 5 days before start of Canby trip. At about the 2K mark I noticed the oil pressure had dropped. High is now almost 40 and low looks like 20 PSI. It was 65 PSI in Calgary. Reading has nothing to do with oil temp or engine revs. Thought about this for several hundred miles as there was nothing else to do. Convinced that the gauge is being lied to by the sender. :lol: Car got thumbs up twice, called a 'classic' by BC Ferry employee, one "my sister had a '77", one offer for parts from wife's ex husbands old car sitting in yard for 15? years, several honks but maybe I was driving too slow? Dozens of looks, but might have been glares from driving too slow? Half dozen times someone pushing me down the road because they were in a hurry suddenly found themselves in a corner going too fast! I'm lower, lighter and outta here. They shriek the tires and back off. SUV did this on the Lillooet to Pemberton run. About 30-40 miles of the 60 are well paved but incredibly twisty, up and down. Here is just a small small section... Here's only 6 min. Imagine an hour with more trees, along a river, up down over creeks... and twice as fast 5 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Seven nights in goon not counting Canby. Most miles in a day 721. Three states, and two provinces (Alberta twice because road washed out) Saw cow moose, an elk in Jasper National Park, lots of deer. Was allowed into the engineering spaces of the WAC Bennett Dam on the Peace River where tourists are not allowed. About 3,100 miles at 27-28 MPG US. How are the kids, were they good??? Did they miss me? 2 Quote Link to comment

Loren O Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 I was trying to figure out who owned the butterscotch 510 with the plaid panel,while I was walking around talking to people Sunday. That's such a cool idea,especially if there was a mismatched panel there anyway, (is that the case? ). Primer is fine, but the plaid just looks so Damn cool ! 1 Quote Link to comment
