top speed 125? what?
 
So i was doing some digging around and I found out that the TS of the frs is 125, and its drag limited. That doesn't seem right. My 02 es300 would hit 140 Drag limited, it was heavier, rode higher, and had less horses. How does the frs not go faster? What can I do to make it go above the 125 mark. I plan on tracking mine. Im assuming droping the car with coilovers, adding a spoiler for down-force, and just pushing the engine with a turbo/charger.

Am I correct in my assumptions?

Step 1:burnrubber:
Step 2, Dash says 125

step 3:sigh:
Step 4:brokenheart:

Top speed is 143.

Edit: FYI your ES300 made more power and a lot more torque.

The top speed is not limited to 125, our gearing can do 170+. Though getting to those speeds on stock performance is the hard part. I have taken my car to 135.

Squeezed 235 kph (approx 146 mph) out of mine but it was on E85 and a long stretch of tarmac and I ran out of it while the speed was still (very) slowly increasing. Always assuming the speedo is pretty accurate of course.

I don't think I would have an issue passing 125, judging by how it's pulling. LOL

Misfire above 7300, I think it's a bad coil.

I'm gonna swap the coil from cylinder 4 to 3 to see if it follows. If not, then I'll replace the plug. I just got to sears to pick up the AXESS sockets to make my life easier LOL.
