Its the 4x4 2.5 manual, TCJ. At 4,000km before my first service, the h'way was clear I decided to see what it have. At x-to-board I only got to 140kmph. This was for about five mins with the x all depressed.
Some one told me it has to break in, so no problem.
But yesterday (@8,900 km on speedo) I floored it again for a good few mins and only 140kmph. Is this normal? And also how do you know when the Turbo kicks in?
Thanks guys.

Perfectly normal as far as I am aware. Doh get more than 140-150 on mine. Exact same model.

its not a Navara yuh buy yunno

140....u get plenty dwag.....

but why would you want to floor a 4x4.......havevn't you seen enough dead 4x4 drivers....


...worse yet yuh doing it on the stretch that is as smooth as riding in a dingy in the bocas......allyuh good we....

hilux powaaa

normal on the 2.5.

boost builds from 1300 rpm - thaz why you dont feel it "KICK IN"

i got 150 IN MY B2500 NOT DOIN IT AGAIN THOUGH...

how fast them navara is go biggy?

i hit 160+ already and had to back off cos the van was starting to feel unstable. and dat is stock

I don't think vans was meant for speed. I does get 140 for the max 150 was the most going down south on the hill by petrotrin there. My cousin ford ranger 3.0 real fast 170+ but that was a frighting ride. the rangers are pretty good with plenty torque. toyota have better resale value and more durable it think. i don't know i might be biased.

might?

i think the l200 warrior was somewhere between 160-170k for top end.

remember toyotas are built with low end torque in mind. the 2.5 4x4 gives you max 140kms. the 2.5 4x2 can give you as much as 160kms.

but please back off. if you wanna go faster i suggest you put the van up for sale, and buy a fast car

them vans cannot be stable at them speeds

Yeah I get a 160 with the ole gurl too...

Anyways, for the original poser, I mean poster of the thread. That was a little too soon to be hitting full throttle on the pickup... You only do that after the first service....

the 3.0 lux is well capable of 200 , i hit 19* on the highway - road clear early on a sunday morn.

its not somn i`d reccommend you do.. know yuh vans limits and drive in moderation.

i enjoy de acceleration more than the top end....yuh does know when my tobo spool

I tell yuh already it is an Animal, we never got warriors locally

but, yes i get 170km\h

2.5L intercooler turbo

allyuh direct turbo boys not ready

I get 160 - 165 on my ranger hurricane quite easily.

nah man newto4x4,

i just get my TCK 2.5 hilux and the rep tell me that the engines supposed to be pre- broken in. so i hit the south highway a night 1st week i got it and acceleration was good, ran up to abt 150-160 and had to slow down cuz of traffic, but still felt like u can do more.

speedo says 200 is what they can do, i believe more like 180-190 max

but would be very unstable at those speeds.


venum, i accept ur challenge lol

Did a 16x, dont ask me what the x was, all i know is between 160 and 170. I was too busy paying attention to this guy with a ranger in front.

i got 180 already wit my navara...was doin about 4500rpm in 6th....
prefer cruise about 100-120thought...outta boost and in 6th lol...

Hit 160+ in the 3.0 Hilux. But i have 24s so i doh think it would've ventured further than that. Plus...i was worried about stopping.

155+ with the 2.5T Frontier..probably more cuz i didnt realise n slowed down..wasnt even mashing the pedal hard

150km flat out with my hilux..older model by the way..it have a 2L non turbo engine in it. Funny thing is H20 have the same model hilux..same engine and the needle hits the 180km mark.

maybe his tyres smaller
