Can anybody please confirm what is the MPH / 1000 RPM in 6th on the Yota gearbox ?
Thanks

stalled!!
Why, are you planning to do the Shoreham airport speed run?
I reckon it’s geared for 165mph.
Question is, when do you hit the wall?

Based on previous threads on runs back from the ring and spa I recall it was around 145mph indicated with an actual around 135mph
Yeah mine is doing 80mph on the GPS (Tom Tom) at 4,000rpm
for some reason I have 20.6mph in my head, I will have to check though for sure.
I think it’s 19.9mph/1000rpm. The rev limiter is 8.5k, but will come in at 8k in sixth which gives a theoretical top speed of 159mph.
On the way back from le man, my friends Ferrari testerossa couldn’t pass the little exige up to 140 - both cars equal in acceleration despite having 2 people in and a boot full of camping gear. I’d expect anyone running 280+ would hit the limiter in sixth easily.
a quick search for all the spec gives us
Engine Speed 1000RPM
Transmission Gear Ratio 0.815:1
Differential Gear Ratio 4.529:1
Loaded Tire Radius 12.48 inches
Vehicle Speed 21 MPH
however, you do need to account for the tyre being slightly smaller due to deflection from the weight, so just under would make sense?

Here’s a chart. I’ve also made one for the Kaaz kit in anticipation 
Well that confirms Eau Rouge & Kemmel should be interesting…gear selction 
and top speed wise 
JF - How’s the rest of the mods progressing? Do I need to add a 9500 rpm column to the charts?
Erm… having head issues still but it may come to an end shortly, half way there anyway. Next year should see some sizeable gains on other stuff I’m sorting engine-wise. Maybe 10kg more weight saving, tbh this is slowing down until the head and stuff are sorted.
