5. how much fuel comsumtion does a v8 engine in Holden commodores use compared to a rotary engines in the rx-7 FD3S ?
The holden commodore use much more fuel than the rx7, because the commodore has a big v8 engine, as for the rx7 with a rotary engine with a volume of 1.3-2.0 liters. therefore, the rx-7 uses less fuel than the holden commodore v8 and is more fuel efficient.

more will be added.

when i will start recording the tally for my wasp

i will start recording how much fuel the cars use over a thirty day period from the 16 july (start of term 3) to teh 14th of august about 4 weeks into term 3, i have chosen these dates becuase, it is when we use the cars the most, dad goes to work, and mum drives bro+sis and i to schook every morning, where we can record the pertrol, if i where to star recording on the holidays, becuase we don't go out as much on the holidays, we don't use the car to go an where, so yeah.

3. what are some of the popural engines today?

Some of the popular engines today are engines that don’t consume up as much fuel, this is because over the last year fuel prices have gone up, by 30-50 cents extra, this may depend on some state or territories, e.g. the fuel prices in queens land are the cheapest, but the fuel price in Sydney are so far the most expensive, with petrol prices reaching up to 150 cents per letter, and Melbourne in between the two states, but today there are some people that don’t mind the petrol prices, this maybe because they have a passion for cars, have upgrades or having powerful engines are some of the cause to the bill your petrol, e.g. a v8 engine that has a capacity of 5 litters is a lot of fuel, now that’s an engine that will cost you lot of money, but for a 4 cylinder with a capacity of 2.1 litters it wouldn’t cost you as much money as the v8.

Installing turbo into your car will use up much more fuel weather it’s an 2 litter engine or a 5 litter engine because the turbo pumps more are in to the engine it revs much faster, and can change a the amount of fuel the car use per for every kilometre the car travels


this is what i have to far, i still have acouple of question, some i need to wait for the servay, some i need to research, the severy dosn't start uintill next term becuase i want it to be a servay of every day, not school holiday, cuase we don;t use the car every day.
