A scan gauge will not work on your VX. You will have to go the MPGuino route and install it in your car. Not too difficult though.
You could probably breach 60mpg if you upgraded to Honda civic HX rims and Bridgestone potenza R92's.
A partial grill block in the cooler months, and a block heater would probably help tremendously if you do mainly short trips (<20mi).
