2003 corolla ascent gearing Tue, 10 August 2004 23:02 Go to next message
Hey all - for those who care Smile

I've been for a bit of a thrash in my corolla this morn --

just thought I'd post the gear speeds to see what people think:

All gear changes done at or just before 5500 rpm

1st: 55
2nd: 95
3rd: 115
4th: 140
5th: 160 (4000 rpm - had to slow down due to traffic)

I don't think they'll get too much higher than that - maybe 180 tops...revs nice and smooth all the way up there...but I really don't think it would get too far over 160 -- acceleration is pretty damn sluggish up there....

anywhoo just thought I'd post it Smile

Have a great day everyone.

Got a 2003 conquest myself, and those speeds sound about right. Had second up to 90 today and noticed that was around 5,000 rpm. Makes it pretty easy to do 0-100 with one (or no) gear changes if i'm feeling lazy.

On a clear straight road the Ascent I hired up in the northern territory reached over 200kph, that was around 6-6,200rpm from memory so there was still a little way to go before redline Razz
