Revs
Question I've had for a long time... look at chaikrab's tach.
Do overseas Yarii actually rev to 8 grand or is there just 1500 RPM's of wasted tach? I've never seen a car top out right at redline. |

I think my sedan buries at 8 grand. What about the liftbacks??? I also
thought 8 grand was unusual. |

My LB is at 8 also, but I believe it is more for looks then anything else.
As kurokoma-kun it redlines at 6.5. |

Don't all cars have a red line and then go past it on the tach? I know my last car went 1-2,000 RPM past the redline, and like kurokoma-kun said it wouldn't let me go over it.

I think Chino was saying that its weird how they stopped at 8 grand but the line continues so it looks like it goes to like 9 grand.

What I was saying was that on any other manual car I've driven with a tach the revs didn't stop at redline. For example, my old Eclipse I believe redlined at 6,000 RPM and TOPPED OUT at 7,000. What the hell is with the Yaris redlining and limiting out at 6500 RPM?

... and the major question... can the 1NZ handle 8,000 RPM? Is the reason for the low revs due to engineering or an FE-geared setup?

Um, yea mine is the same I'm in Canada.
Look at the speedo, it does the same thing. You think a stock Yaris is gonna go 200K? I'm not so sure about that. |
