top speed in a 6GC Options

[rayneezy23]

yea out of curiosity whats the top speed in a celica st or a gt just wanted to know so i know what to expect when i test my car, of course on the track.

[j0e_p3t]

depends how much road you have...

[CelicaZR]

I've done 220km/h

[Dee-No]

Speed indicator showed 235km/h on german highways... holy moly you can watch your fuel indicator going down

in a usdm ST, top speed is around 120mph i believe.
for the gt, its around 126-130mph, limited by gearing.

[malpaso]

I tryed once on airfield. Reached 200km (125miles) per hr. I belive it's normal for Euro ST.

[recycle]

180 kph on 5th gear, almost 200 with 4th

stupid japan speed restrictions

[KB-2]

the fastest ive goen is 110 mph. on some highway. then i slowed down, due to the cop radar was flippin out

[lipweb]

My 1996 GT says 150mph, but I've brought it to about 125mph then I slowed down due to traffic.

[Daftboy]

I have gone 135 in the 94 ST on the turnpike

[tufy]

i think this is a repost but.
i have done 270 kmph with almost stock engine. topspeed depends on gearbox power and rev limit.

[Akira_g4]

I've gotten up to about 123-125mph. dont think ill be doing that again.....no need to be going that fast unless its on a track with alot of road

[neKronos]

The question is are any of you compensating for your fancy flashy rims .

I hit 122 on stock rims with 87oct in my 96GT manual. At that point it just didnt really wanna go anyfaster at any decent rate. So I coasted along it was nice.

[My2Celi]

Every time i try going my top, my gf slaps me and screams at me.

[WH95TE]

Best i've done is 110, car seemed to be having trouble getting much further.

[bindertch]

Every time i try going my top, my gf slaps me and screams at me.

Just like my wife. I can't even go close to 90 with her in the car but without her I have crashed head long into the speed limiter at 115 or so. I can't wait to get rid of that and try it out on the track in Washington. Just something to compare to for when I swap this one or the next one that I get.

Mine is governer'd at 115...any way i can change that and still pass inspection?

[illneversellmyce...]

120 for me, but hit 127 one time in the mountains coming down the mountain, got to love are handling! car responsed well, and i was in full control, wasn't scared at all, 94 st btw

[recycle]

I hit 122 on stock

hit 127 one time

how do u know its 122 and not 123 or 127 and not 128
at speeds more than 160kph /100mph its hard to keep constant attention to the the speedo to see the excact speed and more to that to slow down means u see something on the road (cop, radar, other car, tree crossing the road) so looking at the peak of the speedo is the last thing to pass ur mind

[bloodrain]

135? kph maybe

I've hit 126 in my GT on I-95, stop trying only cuz I thought my car was gonna blow up, lol.

btw this thread will get closed since it would be considered street racing.

90mph is my top speed... I really wanted to keep the maintenance fee down....

Back then when I had my Sentra, I went from LA to Las Vegas in 2 and a half hour. 120, 130mph on the 15fwy was pure fun and joy.

[mzztoyota]

There are no stretches here for me to find out my top speed

I can do 40-50 on curvy freakin mountain roads...lol!

[Daftboy]

I hit 135 in it ...it was slightly down hill but that much....plus i run 94 octane as well...also still have stock rims..who knows..maybe the wind was in my favor

[rayneezy23]

in an st it hella sucks because when like your reaching at like 85- 90 your revving so high but its alright because i rarely go that fast 60 too like 70 is fast enough for me.

speed limiter is sooo gay
i have one at 115 too, and it's like hitting a wall, the car is still pullin hard when i hit it.

[BLADDER_MASTER]

Speedo don't work, but I've hit 6000 RPM's in 5th gear on a 3rd gen 3S-GE tranny with 205/50/15 tires.

Edit: Disregard my statement since it wasn't done on a 6GC.

[hurley97]

I was under the impression that ST's (96+ anyway) are limited to 111mph

I've pushed mine to about 125 on a downgrade but only gotten it to about 115 on level road... that was with the auto tranny and 97 ECU. Since the swap I havn't really tried, but I do notice that when it gets to about 90mph it doesn't lag like the auto did.

[Insanity-74]

149MPH on a runway/dragstrip

[neKronos]

hit 127 one time

I have fantastic peripherial vision so I can look at the speedo and pay attention to the road ahead depending on the situation, and it was 4am on a deserted strip of highway and this highway is consitently dead between 2am-5am.

[CelicaBuddy]

ive done 110... but then i slowed down cuz it was beginning to scare me lol

but i have a feeling my car coulda taken more... im really not the type to speed tho so I'll prolly never max a car...

[bloodrain]

149MPH on a runway/dragstrip

in what kind of car...

*nevermind* saw u had a GT-4, thought it said GT, lol.

[burneeed]

Not very fast

[pnoywitmustrdsau...]

135mph almost at redline maybe i could of done more!!! maybe...

[6strngs]

a friend of mine used to have an eclipse GST, apparently he got some JDM engine for it (engine was blown when he bought the car) and slapped a gigantic stage 3 turbo on it... supposedly he topped it out at 110 mph.... in 3rd gear

fastest I've taken the celi is about 105... so I never got close to the top speed so I don't know what it is

a stage 3 turbo? lol this isnt Gran Turismo.

[Consynx]

when i get standalone(not bothering with piggybacks) i'll do a run just to try and top these ...although it's not a 6gc
and the gt4s will still prob be higher. . .

I dunno, that's just what I was told it was... but I saw a pic of it, he had the stock turbo in one hand and the new turbo in the other... yeah, the new turbo was about double the size!

[IGloo]

After rebuilding and tuning the 1,8-liter ST´s 7A-FE engine, went to test it on a local highway...and the result was 220+ kph (or about 137 mph)...enough for me!
