Top speed on V6

[jjthenovice]

I have an 03 XLE with the 24-valve VVT-i V6. Does anyone know how fast this will go before the computer shuts down the fuel???

[2000CamryLEV6]

dunno... but too fast for stock tires. period.

[Aussie Ed]

it would probably be something faster than 170km/h

coz thats what i did in my gen 4.5 v6, i could of went faster but i ran out of straight road.....

[jjthenovice]

Actually, my stock tires have a speed rating of V (149 Mph).

[HoeBag]

ive maxed out my 1mz-fe to 140, but i hope you have good tires

I've gotten mine up to 135 on the Beltway.

My '94 V6 went up to 240 km/h and there wasn't any form of speed governing that I have discovered yet. If you really want to test out topspeed, I would suggest going to the dyno and ask for a topspeed pull if the dyno operator allow you to do so. I went 240km/h because it only took me about 30 secs to do so after my turbo setup... much better than keeping at a dangerous speed and inching bit by bit to hit topspeed. I never dared to run topspeed when my Camry was stock with bolt-ons because it took way too long to get up to a measly 180km/h, and the longer you stay at those speeds the more dangerous it becomes. And if you are pulling topspeed on stock tires, brakes and suspenion, please crash somewhere else other then public roads

I hit 126mph before I gave up... too little accelleration up there.

Gen 3 V6 SE did 131 MPH in a Motortrend Comparison Test back in '93.

I've taken my 4 cyl up to speeds higher than that before.

[Experimenter]

yeah i hit 225km/h but slowed down after that, but, i have upgraded front brakes, performance pads all the way around, and z rated tires...

My friends 2000 auto V6 solara went to 135 then the limiter kicked in, and my 1998 manual V6 camry hit 140, and the revs just stop at 5k. Both cars wanted to go further though.

[Eye8Pussies]

200+, but the accelleration goes kinda slow after 185/190 tho

I forgot what units. It was 135mph and 140 mph or 216kph and 224 kph.

I was goin pretty good the other nite, hit about 126. A few hours later I remember that I had just put my snow tires on a couple weeks ago.... S rated... Whoops. LoL It was nice out, I forgot what time of year it was.
