Freeway rpm

[Mopar]

Silly question here, whats a standard lancer cc gsr turbo in 5th meant to sit at 100 kmh an hour,
as in what rpm?

 

[Atters_del]

Mine sits at between 3000rpm & 3500rpm depending on throttle control.. 3500rpm is usually at about 110km/hr so you would be safe to say 3100rpm is about 100km/hr...

 

[nigel_a]

my evo3 sits at 2900 doing a 100 and 3100 at 110, my gsr also had the same readings.

 

[Mopar]

Yeh mine sits around that, 3,100 , 3,200 at 100 kmh.

Just seems abit high for a cruising rpm so i thought il ask.
Thanks fellas

These are my readings using GSR ratios backed by a 4G63T engine with 280 cams and GT3082 turbo (off boost).
RPM reading from an Apexi AVCR/ECU: 3000rpm at 100kmh / 3200rpm at 110kmh
RPM reading from a GPS unit: 2850rpm at 100kmh
Gear/Ratio: GSR front diff ratio, GSR 5th gear, GSR 3.545 rear diff ratio
Tyre dimension: 215/40/17 tyres (17x7 wheels)
Vehicle weight 1240kg.

If you think that's high mopar I had a version 4 Wrx sti type Ra with close ratio box. At 100km an hr in 5th it was pushing around 3850. My gsr is around 3100 rpm. My rz supra was 1100 rpm in 6th lol

Thanks for that evo 00x, i have 15 inch wheels on mine..

Lol adrian,thats mental! WOuldve felt responsive as!
Highest geared car i owned was a 2 litre escort with a 4spd and 4,11's an that thing was like 3600 @ 100 on the fwy.
Im used to low geared v8's thats why...
Rz supra.... Thats the turbo model right?

 

[captainTeeBag]

Yeah mate the rz is the later shape twin turbo model. As for the sti yeah it was mental!! It topped out in 5th at about 175km/hr 0-100 was in the 3 second range. Very fast car. Most people
On here would pro bag it cos it's a Rex tho.. Lol

Oh do you still have the rz?

Who cares,i have v8's and i bag my gsr heaps lol.

 

[captainTeeBag]

Lol. No unfortunately I don't have the rz anymore. And after a 6yr build on the car with 600hp 1700nm to4z and other mods I sold it to a muppet who wrote it off within a week of ownership and landed himself in hospital for close to a month. Best car ever owned period. I refer to my gsr as the bitsashitty.. Lol still I have a soft spot for it and the mrs hates it so in my mind it must be a food thing

 

[captainTeeBag]

Good thing

 

[Mopar]

Oh,why did you sell it?
Theyre over engineered from factory which is what makes them reliable.
* albeit you dont buy an abused mistreated one*

 

[captainTeeBag]

Sold it just due to it being impractical and fuel prices. It could empty a near full tank in a 15minute session at the track. Km's were getting up also. I'd love another one but have a little one to think of now so daddy's toys really need back doors

 

[WindeX]

3000-3100 RPM for my Evo 3 when doing 100km/h

Thats understandable.
How much power was it making and did you ever take it to the quarter mile?

 

[captainTeeBag]

600hp and 1700nm of torque. Did an low 11 on street tyres with lots of wheelspin trap speed was around 135mph and that was on a shitty nz dragstrip so would have easily got into the tens with some decent rubber. That was in full street trim as well

Wow. Thats fast man.
Easy,135 mph you can get a low 10 with a good pass!
Man that would of been a blast to drive.
