Rpm for 5th gear? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Anyone know what's the normal rpm for 140km/h

I think my Gen 3 V6 is little bit higher normal.

I have about 3800rpm when I am driving 140km/h

but my other Gen 3 I4 can hold 130km/h under 3000rpm
I am wondering is that normal?

If not, where is the problem??
how can I solve it
Is timing belt a problem??

I do a "tad" over 3000rpm in 5th doing 120km/h.

Yeah, I'm JUST above 3000rpm at 120kmph, so I would think only a hundred or two more for 140kmph. If your car is higher, nothing is wrong, it's just geared differently.

Mine is at 2950 RPM in 5th at 120 km/h (74mph). This is on a 99 SE V6.

You must have a rev/speed meter or SAFC in your ride to be that accurate :smile:

I think Solaras may have slightly longer gears than Gen3 V6 trannys.... hmm. It would be nice to have exact gear ratios for all our cars. Ive only found them for the 4-bangers.
