i have seen some speedos in KMS recently. wondering if anyone knows who and what is
the 300KM speedo non (st205) with 9 rpm redline  the 180km Speedo with 9 rpm redline i know the st205 has max of 180 and 9 rpm redline I just looked at mine, gt USDM and the max in km is 240km so what is the deal? the beams is 180 why the whole mess? -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL

i think the only odd one out here is the 300km/h TRD one, it was some kinda special option/upgrade.
I think the only reason we have 240km/h on ours is cause ours goes up to 150 mph? and they may have thought that stopping the kmh at 180 would look silly? lol to be honest we know the 4 is capable of way more than 180kph, i think thats like 120mph... dont know why they stopped there, and toyota knows the 5s couldn't touch 150mph, so i have no clue why we got that either.  some things will never make sense... Maybe they want us with the slow engine to think we can go fast, and those with the fast engine to think they can only go slow?!

QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out. QUOTE Ferdi says (11:29) No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings. |

Anyway... I just found out in Kevstir's thread the other day that the UK spec GT's with the 3S-GE have a 180 mph speedo, where our crappy 5S GT's only have a 150 mph speedo. I know there's a difference in power, but it seems to me that a 150 mph speedo would have sufficed in the UK spec GT's, and I know my car would LOVE a 180 mph speedo.
