Whats our max speed?? - Page 4 - Toyota Yaris Forums

botchilah · 09-09-2009, 02:56 AM

I've done about 170kmh (speedo indicated) in 4th gear and ran out of road before I could downshift to 3rd in my Yaris 5-door hb. I'll try it out again soon hehehe

I got up to 103mph (165.7 km/h) this past Sunday evening, but even that was a feat. I expected for it to be a little easier, to be honest. But I had a custom axleback fabricated yesterday (it looks good), so I'm sure that will help with the high end.

Botchilah, why would you rev that high in 4th gear? Wouldn't that be putting lots of stress on the engine? I didn't even know it was possible to achieve 170km/h in 4th.

I have personally seen a Yaris 3dr HB, hit 185..(MPH that is). but it was modded to hell, he put his video up on youtube I think, I will see if I can find the link.

185mph on a Yaris?

I don't even think the car body would be able to withstand such a speed.

El Mirage! I, trying to be a responsible young adult, drove the distance to get to El Mirage. The dry lake bed. NO SPEED LIMIT. Paid my fee to get in. My friend took his EVO X. Just the two of us there! It was pretty cool. I took mine to the max, and had PLENTY of land left. I hit about 115 or so, i forget. In fourth gear. Didn't bother with 5th, as it's speed limited. I will try to find pics and video

LOL - that sh!t was too funny!

chongopants · 09-09-2009, 01:50 PM

I am looking for it, if I can't find it on you tube I will see if he still has original. But it is turbo'ed and lightened, I have drivin in it. It is a beast (for a yaris) :) Thats my goal is to get it like his, but with a little better handling, all he had was sway bar and better brakes.

Liltoaster · 09-09-2009, 03:17 PM

Best so far is 183.5 in my Echo..... Ran out of road :(

most auto cars are speed limited when i was purchasing my yaris they messed up the order and gave me a toyota camry (08) to use and even once i got to 90kmph i noticed the power just cut down and started accelerating like a snail

Ive had mine up against the actual limiter, I believe on our USDM models it is 118 mph, not GPS verified, but definetely over 100.

I have got that same reading by speedo AlexNet0

IVE GOTTEN TO 120MPH 5-8 TIMES

EleKid · 09-16-2009, 12:52 PM

I've driven 110 regularly in my automatic, even when it was completely stock (I have an intake now). Highest I've gone was 112, and then I pussied out.
