June 8, 200422 yr Author comment_11123 would be intresting to get a large measuring tacko, connect it upto a stock 4k, and rev it to see what it stops @, and how long it lasts lol ;) Report

June 8, 200422 yr comment_11130 i'd say he held the accelerator open, possibly with a brick cafee with the blue 2 door ke30 has a similar engine to mine, except it got done up about 8 years ago. the other month he booted it our of a roundabout and his accelerator cable stuck open (much like happened to rollie) in town, he fought it with the brakes but it kept pulling, he clutched in, it freerevved, he turned the key off and pulled over. his monster tach flicked to about 10500. people poked their heads out of shops, people said it sounded like a motorbike accident wicked Report
June 8, 200422 yr comment_11131 stock valve springs usually stop revving at about 7500, even newish ones. as they get older they de-tension and won't rev as hard. fook's 4k stops revving at about 5500. my 3k used to valve bounce at 6200 Report

I would have liked to be standing on the side of the road with a microphone listening to all the corollas go up the hill revving their tits off. Maybe a pair of ear muffs too. Report
