Curious about different RPM ranges on 1987 Supra.
 

Howdy,

I am a new member and have lurked around on this site since considering purchasing a new (to me) 1987 Toyota Supra Turbo.

Forgive me if I haven't utilized the search function fully in order to find the answer to this question.

I was wondering for those of you who also have a 1987 Supra Turbo, what RPM's do you hit when going about 80 MPH on the highway in 5th gear?

My vehicle hits about 3k RPM at this speed in 5th gear. I just purchased my car and am just trying to figure out what is normal and what isn't.

Thanks for the help in advanced. Glad to officially be a part of the forum.

I'm probably at 3100 or 3200 at 80mph, but i have 4.11 gearing.

mine is a little higher than 3k rpm, according to my axle code i have 4.30 gears. Remember most of your power is above 4000 on these cars.

This is helpful. I guess I was worried because the RPM range is a little high compared to "normal" cars. Haha.

my 96 celica is at ~3400 at 65 mph... it needs a sixth gear
