Dutchie27 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 fuck me you must of bin well on the red lolHaha didn't sound like it was struggling either not sure if its any good and I don't have a rev gauge fitted yet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 The speed you do in each gear will never change unless you change your rev limit or the ratio's in the gearbox. Only the way it pulls to the limiter in each gear is effected by breathing mods Approximately on the speedo you will get on the limiter of 6250rpm2nd = 573rd = 844th = 110 just under iirc5th = 125-30 if you could reach it (not enough power standard)You also have to bare in mind your speedo is inaccurate and wheel size will affect how far out the speedo is.100mph in mine is more like 94mph satnav speed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
palmer_starlet Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yer man that sounds about right. Mine does 0-30 in 1st 30-55 in 2nd 55-about 82 in 3 and then onwards and upwards....... lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutchie27 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 So is doing 80 in 3rd ok or is it pushing it hard ? I don't wanna go blowing my engine up I need a rev gauge ASAP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
palmer_starlet Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 yer its pushing it put it that way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutchie27 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 I won't be doing that often then haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Tbh i dont think its too much to worry about, its only 6200rpm. the limiter is there to prevent any over revving. If you decide to Keep revving it hard keep it serviced more often. Oh and dont be a tool and hold it on the limiter in car parks lolThe early 4efe's used to rev to 7k so the engine can probably handle revving more than what yours does Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 dont worry bout killin a 4efe, its nearly impossible tbh lol my old black SR had 155k on the clock when i wrote it off and i used to give it a right good kickin every couple of days and it never skipped a beat mate, no excess usage of oil either Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Asad Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 110mph is possible with the right mods, i remember raffa saying he got a touch more but iirc he had more money pumped into his N/A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 dont worry bout killin a 4efe, its nearly impossible tbh lol Fastphil that used to have a starlet SR hydroliced his it bent the rods, spat one out the block, lost all its oil over the road and still made it the 8 mile home!! We then started it up and drove it onto the trailor!! People where taking bets on how long it would take him to kill it as he was on the limiter all the time! They gave in because it dint actually did through abuse!! He dround it in a big flood lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Billy SR Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 had 119 downhill in my old sr with a corolla inlet, remus backbox (no difference) and k&n air filter. plan is to get as much as i can out of this 4efe now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dutchie27 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Thanks for all the replies at least I know my engines built strong Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Make it more aerodynamic, lighter and thinner tyres ;)You dont need power to go faster although it does help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I can't wait to see if I can get 130mph with the 5e-fhe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveyDemolition Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) Haha I managed to put a conrod through the sump on my 4efe, just putting it out there! But I hit the limiter everytime, which after two years I think it had enough Edited March 1, 2013 by DaveyDemolition Quote Link to post Share on other sites
