Redwarf Posted July 29, 2004 Author Report Posted July 29, 2004 Irokin, if you think that's bad, I know someone who's running 5.1:1 in his KE70 at the moment.... Quote
Teddy Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 Redwarf - 5.1:1 - ;) -... can i ask why lol !! Quote
Redwarf Posted July 29, 2004 Author Report Posted July 29, 2004 (edited) It's behind about 150hp worth of TRD 5K. The words "ballistic rocket" come to mind... 04170003_vi.jpe Edited July 29, 2004 by Redwarf Quote
irokin Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 the words low top speed come to mine. 150kmph is 5900rpm on mine Quote
Felix Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 i don't mind my 4.5:1, my engine loves cruising at 3800-4000 in 5th. 1st is a bit short. must say fuel economy has dropped off a bit. the long hills on the way to gatton don't make a difference. makes v6 commodores look stupid from a set of lights ;) geez 5.1:1 now thats bloody low geared. must do like 30 kays in 1st. would have serious grunt. do they run a close ratio gearset with a taller 1st? you could go broke on that NZ site real quick.

Super Jamie Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 how do you stand cruising on the freeway? i spose my exhaust's a bit droney, but you get used to it after a while (i actually wear earplugs when i go to brisbane) i tried to attach my gearing spreadsheet but it doesnt work Quote
demuire Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 That KE70 is crazy. It is one seriously quick car... Who cares about top speed when you can get there so, so quickly... Quote
Teddy Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 It's behind about 150hp worth of TRD 5K. The words "ballistic rocket" come to mind... is it for sale and how much :gurgler: ! what a nice ke70 =) TRD 5k Ey? - Whats the specs? ;) *spelling :D Quote

I do the same thing if I have to drive soon after I wake up. Theres about 2 sets of earplugs in my car Quote
Felix Posted July 29, 2004 Report Posted July 29, 2004 it's not to bad jamie, guess the engine is pretty lightly loaded so the exhaust is actually quieter, then when i had the 4.22 and the larger diameter 175/70s. since i've changed to the 185/60s i could probably go to a 4.3 now. using your very handy gearing chart, 4000 rpm equates to 66 MPH (105 km/h) in 5th.
