Default ECT Transmission?

Ok, i know a decent amount about supra's but i still have not figured out if there is an actual difference if the ect is on or off, it seems like its slighty quicker on the acceleration but i cant tell for sure, can someone plz tell me what the stupid button actually does? thx

Yes, if you are throttling in D and it does not change before 5500rpm it is starting to wear.

and your rev limiter on your 7mgte/7mge will be at a max of 6750 on the 6M crank which revs higher than the 7M crank unless of course you have an aftermarket ecu to which you have adjustable rpm limiter.
