Is there any supra that has a odometer in KM/H? He thinks beacuse the speedometer is in KM/H that the odometer is that to, but I think they just have put a plate over the speedometer that shows KM/h.
These engines can only "go for a long time" if they are properly maintained and always run sufficient octane to match the boost level.

Yes, Japanese-spec Mkiv Supra Turbos show km and km/h not miles or mph. Also, TRD makes a 320km/h speedometer with no mph scale on it at all.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
