Sorry, might just be the video.


Altitude maybe? Auto VS Manual?

See the turbo 'busa vid where the guy is takin it to 160, if you look at the horizon, it looks like he's just cruisin along. Thats what happens when you have a slow frame rate cam - the speedometer tells a better story. I'll get a 0-60 vid today if i can. Believe me its WAY faster than it ever was. I got it from 60 to 117 (on my speedometer, not sure actual speed) in the time it used to take me to get from 60 to approx 100 with my intake and stock wheels on. Its not remotely comparable.. even with the dubs on! Just to put it into perspective... I couldnt get it past ~105 with the dubs on, at least not after a few miles of WOT. There wasnt enough smooth highway in IL for me to get past that lol.

The speedometer is either way low in the yaris, or its way high in the 3000gt, I'd say a combo of both. When cruisin along, my 40 was his 45

Probably b/c of your big wheels... since they have a larger overall diameter, they're turning slower to maintain the same speed, so your speedometer will register a lower speed than actual.

Which also means the car is shifting at a much higher speed, i could def feel the difference when I first put em on. It was/is kewl though, just takes a little more gas to get goin, I generally dont drive "hard" anyway.
