So now that i got my car almost fixed....i realized that my car doesnt want to go over 122 mph.
is that normal or is there still something wrong with the car, maybe just the tuning. even though the rpm is around 4500 4800, the car doesnt really go anywhere...just wanted to make sure if thats normal or anywhere close to other GT celicas thanks -------------------- For Sale:OEM tail lights - make offer

the correct answer to the topic is...
"slow". and its called a governor which is causing it so you car wont go any faster. your car isnt hitting 122 mph on the 1/4 mile strip either being a 5sfe so I dont recommend you driving 122 mph out on the streets my friend. -------------------- current project: looking :(

X2, I cant stress this enough. sure it is fun, but if you sit down and think about it. you are putting your life one the line, and if you get caught.. I'm not sure what the laws are by you, but in Illinois if you get caught, you WILL pay out the ass. 2 years ago i was caught speeding down a country road, and got slapped with a $500 fine, 2 years conditional discharge and that's with a $1000 lawyer. starting this year, the fines have skyrocketed to mandatory thousands of dollars in fines and mandatory jail time.  that taught me a little lessen.
