What's the Top Speed on the V6 Automatic GEN 4 Camry?? is it 210kph? (130mph)

From what i heard from my friend, he said on a flat road, he could only do 210kph. on downhill slope he did 218kph then the engine cuts off when it reaches 5200rpm.

is there a way to remove the REV LIMITER ???

That's crazy... on a Camry? HaHa...

downshift!

127 for i4 135 for v6

apex rsm will cut out the governor.. but its there for your safetey.. btw your tires u got on your rims only go up to 120 before the warranty gives out.. so when they blow its your own stupid fault..

Z rated..... if you dare...

the govenator doesnt kick in till 135? thats stupid...i mean if its gunna kick in why not sooner? Its not like 140 and 135 is gunna make a difference...

I know my highlander kicks in at 110mph.

My '01 2.2 tops out at 96MPH and apparently the solution is to have the ECU reprogrammmed by a 'speed shop' or someone who really knows what they're doing.

Dark-LE · 12-16-2005, 01:10 AM

115mph here.... 2.2 gen 4

TRDCamryCL · 12-16-2005, 01:13 AM

Wait, why would a 01 5SFE top out at 96?

mzfe5speed · 12-16-2005, 01:40 AM

i've got my 2000 v6 up to 135(manual), it was surprisingly smooth. i got my sisters 2001 v6 (auto) up to at least 130, dont remember exactly its been a while. im guessing that w/ no gov. mine should hit about 155 or 160 at redline.

touringcamry · 12-16-2005, 02:11 AM

The tires that Camrys usually come with, H rate, are rated only up to 130MPH/210KMPH so basically it's there probably for safety and liability reasons.

210km/h? on a V6? thats slow! and how come the speedo have only 220kph
on it? here they go to 260km/h (162mph) a 3gen V6 did 245km/h on the
a 4km long flat straight where i live. Forgot to mention that it was a manual tranny V6
my gen2 3sfe managed 210km/h on the same straight with only 130hp!.

i am still wondering how he took the foto as he was traveling that fast. =P

And i've hit 200 before =) and i have proper tyres that can do it too lol.

I hit 135 on my V6 Gen 3 Auto...... I did not feel the speed limiter kick in.
Anyway... that is what I did.

On my 01 Solara (before and after supercharger) and 99 Camry (Supercharged) I have hit 135 max and then the governor kicks in. On my 92 I4 Camry I hit 125 governed. Jon.
