I drive a '95 st model;
The thing I wanted to know is;
What speed does your Celica ST get in 1st gear @ 6300rpms

Why do I ask; mine does 60km/h = 37.5mph

Thats way to much for this engine. My previous car was a Toyota Camry from 1988 with an 2.0i engine. This thing got 50km/h or 31.25mph it 6300rpms, but it accelerated was MUCH faster.
I wanna find out if I dont have a different gearbox on this engine then the stock one.
(call me paranoid; but a weaker engine with a higher gearing is something I cant believe).

6250, 6300; thats about the same, I dont have a digital readout.
But it gets there pretty good.

Then I'd probably have the correct gearbox because when I look at the tranny ratio's the ST should go faster then the american GT at the same rpm's.

If I had a digital camera, I'd prove that the redline starts at about 6300rpms.

Thx for replying all.
