Bumpin' Yota

Ive had mine up to 147mph and climbing fast!

in my GTO! lol

In my 4Runner, 106mph on a downhill run, but on level ground around 100mph.

Of course all of those speeds were all in a very vivid dream I had.

I could run 90 in my 84 22R 5 speed. Could be why the motor didn't make it. In my daily driving 79' 20R 4Speed it will run 70 but I like babying it around 60-65. I want this truck to out live me. In luv with my 79'

86' p/u 22r auto stock w/ 14" rims xtracab long bed

i took an alternative route to work one day that included a mistaken exit on a turnpike 42 miles out of my effing way

well, needless to say i wasn't happy and was gonna be late for work, sooo going back on a 15 degreed slope, i looked down and the speedo read 102mph... backed her down because i wasn't liking the bad vibrations i got from the steering wheel (my gauge reader for too fast therr, bud)

'79 4x4 4sp completely stock except on 31's. Fastest is 65, probably could have gotten more but I was scared because she was screamin pretty hard. 55 is comfortable.

80mph on level ground at 6500ft elevation in my '81 2WD DIESEL toyota pickup.. stock 5spd snail

That's pretty damn good for a diesel!!

I wonder why everyones top speed varies so much? Maybe some of us got tired engines. I finally tested my newer engine today. Its got 170 in 3 cylinders, and 155 in 4th. I hit 90 with about 1000 more to go in 5th, but it felt like it would have taken ages to get there, not to mention it felt like if I hit 1 lil bump I was gonna soar!

Island yota-- With 33's and factory 4.10 gears, you will be hard pressed to get to 65mph. Dont use 5th gear. I run the 82 4spd tranny, and if i had 5spd, i would run 5.71's for better bottom end. I also have a rebuilt 22r no mods, 4.88's, and 33's. With 4.10s- wouldnt clear 50mph, but now will go 75+. My fuel economy went from 15 to 22 on highway, and rpm is 3200 at 65mph. These motors get power from high rpm and get good fuel econ doing it. Fuel injected trucks do better with tall tires, but re-gearing is the way to go for power and mileage. m2cw.

I maxed the speedo past 85mph with my motorcycle in the back on a 300mi trip across Texas. Like driving a sail boat through a hurricane. 81 Long bed, rebuilt 22R, 5 spd

That's about where I maxed out. Flat road, cold, dry Montana air. With a bit of a down-hill start I was able to hold 110 on the flats (for a while). I had to back-off both times because the handling was super scary and I was distracted by watching the fuel needle drop (seriously, it was noticeable!). Not a good thing when you're 50+ miles from anywhere.

90 with a tailwind before i hollowed out the cat 70 tops best mod i have ever made

MudHippy

Loud though huh?

Mine is.

Oh...88 longbed pickup 3.0 & 4.30's on 35's, got 'er up to ~95-100 mph on a looooooong downhill run, once or twice. I can run at 65-70 mph in 5th on flat ground, no wind.
