Jake Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Rev limiter? Which model Supra have you got? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 assuming you have an n/a that sounds about right to me. If it's a TT then i think you should be getting more. so....TT or n/a and manual or auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.w Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 its the jz80 twin turbo ,ive decated it fitted a blitz fuel cut ,walbro pump,iridium plugs ect ect ,im thinking that my foot should have come off the gas a little to let it go into overdrive what you think ?

Ian W Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 would have thought you'd be seeing more mph than that then mate although if you didn't hit top gear then that would explain it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Was 143 MPH not fast enough then?? H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not you may want to fit a decent DSC. It sounds rather like the same problem the tiptronic auto Supras have with not staying in top gear at high speeds.

bolarbag Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I achieved 175in under a mile! Rolling from about 40 obviously, I applied the brakes but the revs where only about 5.5 in Sixth, ran out of road! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete.w Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 so if the revs are so high does this autamaticly put the gearbox into 3rd gear hence me problem ? the next time i will manualy push the overdrive button in and see what dif it does if any, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyspeed Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Sounds like your maxing out in 3rd gear. I think if your in manu mode or o/d off then then it will max out in 3rd gear rather than shifting into 4th. Had mine max out a few times like this:eyebrows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I thought that number was familiar - yep - topped out in 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csmadmatt Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 i should hope so my NA got a higher top speed than that as standard hope you figure it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 the next time i will manualy push the overdrive button in if your overdrive button is out......then you're basically running on only three gears. Leave it in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest munchie Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 should the overdrive button be set to on all the time? I only noticed mine has one today when i saw o/d off on the dash!! Whats the little red button for in front of the gear stick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Surely you accidently wrote motorway instead of private runway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris and Alana Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 You shouldnt have asked what the red button is for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
