Top Speed

[m4rk scotland]

what is the top speed of a mk2 rev2 tubby? (standard but delimited?)

[Fizz]

i think the gearing takes her to about 160mph

[Bibbs]

about 160, but then depends on the size of your rolling radius (what profile tyres you have) ..

[msherry21]

You can get a final drive gear from a Camry engine which could take you to alot higher. Somebody pver on IMOC is doing this at the moment I think.

what about the 178bhp rev1 imort n/a model. what "theoratically" can they do???

[houston]

you mean 158bhp?

[sewelly]

ive been told the import rev 1 g-limited is 178bhp might be wrong tho...got 140 easily last night on a privte road....

[houston]

nope its 158, and even though your speedo says 140, your not goin that fast, when mine hots the 112 limiter the speedos well over 120

mines delimited and only reads 110 on the clock but my mate was following in his type R and he said thats how fast we were hitting....if that makes sense...

[houston]

i understand but you have to realise that speedos are way out when it comes to high speed.

I think the Na gets up to 130 (ish) but a LOT of that is aerodynamics ..

the bigger ur wheels the less ur speedo over estimates ur speed, so bigger wheels can actually make ur speedo more accurate if as standard the car over estimates, which many car manufactuers do

[laurie_TT]

my wheels are 16s with 50 profile tires, do u think 18s on 35 profile will be the same size over all cos i dont wanna get raised anymore?

the Toyo site has a Tyre Convertor that will help you here ;)

[Rikki]

Had mine at 164mph indicated. Later checked with a Road Angel2 GPS unit and the speedo at 80mph is actually 78mph and Ive got 18's so recon that was a true road speed of 164mph. Still had a bit to go but I kinda shat out of it (only had the car a couple of weeks and was getting used to it).

All on private runway too BTW FYI ... honest.
