Race result with a 3rd gen Supra Turbo at 5:45 AM (pic inside)

216 kilometers/hour = 134.21591999999998 miles/hour

What speed limiter?



He had something done for sure (upgraded turbo) because I didn't pull much on him. Rolled down the window, gave him a thumbs up, he honked back to acknowledge when he passed me, and I took my exit.

No speed limiter now.

Hard to find races (sometimes I don't even know if they are trying to race or not), but I play when it's on.


- Rev: letting the car shift from 1st to 2nd by itself.
- F/R: lateral G's... haven't really tried taking off hard from a stop yet.
- R/L: horizontal G's going up and down on/off ramps... haven't done circles in a parking lot to see what the highest G the car can do.

Top speed.
highest revs.
Dare I ask how much such a toy runs? Does it have a battery backup? Say you take it into Nissan service, you could monitor how much the beat on your car?

Not to spoil your fun...and I wasn't there, but, I had a MKiii Supra T and it really didn't take much to make them fast.

He coulda been just basic free/cheap mods, shimmed wastegate, bleeder valve, 3" DP, 3" exhaust and he's doing low 14s with 98-101 trapspeeds with a healthy engine (i had the above mods, with advanced timing, and ran 14.50s@98mph at 2000ft with an automatic).

Of course, if he had his stock turbo upgraded... he could have a V-trim or H-trim from turbonetics and been in the high 13s...

Problem with MKiii Supras is... hard to find one that's healthy.

Kev I know very little about autos but what gear were you in? Third?

How much are those Apex i Rev Speed Meter bad boyz? How long to install?

There are some MKIII Supra Turbos that would lay waste to a lot of MKIV supras especially Twin Turbos. With the amount of power you are putting down he had some serious mods for sure contrary to what lil rice racer mentioned.

Here you go: http://www.rev-industries.com/apexih...speedmeter.htm

Settings and stuff is stored within the device.

Yes, you can reset the highest settings and see if the service guys are beating on your car or not (keeps highest setting for speed and rev).

He definitely had an exhaust (looked like the GReddy SP)... other than that, I couldn't tell what he had. Even at 14's I should've walked away so I think he had more.

Nifty piece of equipment....Did you get the optional "G-sensor"? Does it (the main piece) hook into the tach line like a shift light?

Look at the link I posted above for the best price I found on the web. Install should take around an hour or less.

We started at about 80-ish so the car dropped down to third. I was ever so slighly pulling away up top (around 9-10 psi), but we did a good job staying with each other.

Yes, I got the G-sensor also. Yup, you can hook it up and use it like a shift light also. The blue box around the number will blink when you hit a certain rpm (you can set this). If you put it where you can easily notice the blinking, you have yourself a shift light.

The main piece hooks up to ig power, ground, rev, speed, and I think one more wire on your ECU harness.

I posted this because some members wanted to know how to cut the speed limiter. If it was a normal race (without an interesting outcome, i.e. speed limit), I wouldn't have posted anything.

Yep, that's why I'm saying he shouldn't be too surprised that he didn't pull on a modded MKiii Supra. Automatic Midget-Equipped Max is anywhere from high 13s-low 14s. With the boost Kev's running, i would bet closer to high 13s. A Basic Mod Upgrade (heheh, BPU?) for a MKiii Supra is pushing the same times. Depending on what year the Supra was (87-88 got 230hp, 89-92 got 232) and options (5spd targa - 3600lbs, auto targa - 3750lbs, 5spd hardtop - 3500lbs), the 5spd hardtop would be the fastest and pushing high 13s with simple home depot mods (and exhaust work).

So, it's a closer race than you would think. Plus, the 7MGTE has a much stronger top-end than the VQ30DE, of course, the addition of a midget makes it much better....so with all things in mind, the race result seemed like what should have happened. If the MKiii had a turbo upgrade, it wouldn't have let him pull, if not beaten him. But, who knows...none of us were there and no one knows the MKiii.

Kev, good kill... the midget is paying off I seet. Just don't get caught at those crazy speeds. You should get that thing on a drag strip and get some numbers...

Sometimes I can't tell if they are racing or not (except for the ones who are keeping up, which the Supra did a nice job on).

Yes, i see him everytime i go to E-Town.

Last year he was running 13.5-13.3 times.

I remember when he raced a modde yellow type-r and walked him, the crowd got a great laugh of out it.

Re: Race result with a 3rd gen Supra Turbo at 5:45 AM (pic inside)

6796 rpms?! You had the car reving that high?

SO you finally floored the car aye Keving?

Anyways, good job.

I raced a 3rd gen before myself. He has to be turbo. Only way he stayed with me on a 100 shot. Too bad he still got passed @ 130+
