Yeah i can nearly get around about 500kms to a tank if i drive it nicely and don't rev it to much. I got to about 430kms about 3weeks ago and the orange fuel light had just started to come on meaning there is at least enough left for another 50kms i'm thinking.

I top up oil frequently after one time i did not see my mechanic frequently enough and my engine started making a funny noise can't remember exactly what it sounded like but i let it do that for about a week before taking it into the mechanic and when i did he popped the bonnet straight away stood there for a second and then checked my oil and there was not a drop on the dipstick. He told me to run a heavier weight oil or something so i use a 20w-50w valvoline oil and it is not to bad now. My car also blows a fair bit of smoke when i plant my foot.

There was a guy on the twincam16 forums called Limbi who told me on his 20v to stop the oil problem he hooked up an oil cooler but don't ask me how he did it because i have no idea i just know i have an oil cooler on my car but i'm pretty sure it ain't hooked up.

Hey AE86slut are you the person who owns a 20v that has had a microtech put on by Dale if so is there any chance of checking your car out i'm curious about how well the 20v responds to this mod.

I have been in a 20v with a Wolf on it and i wasn't overly impressed. It did make it rev a bit better though and lifted the rev cut.
