TRD04IS

i know that the 2JZ wasn't designed to rev high, you can clearly see that by the tach and engine code. my point regarding the rev-limiter it was designed to prevent damage to the motor. that's the main reason why manufacter's has them. so, bumping the limiter would not cause a rebuild or swap. if there wasn't rev-limiters in cars then i could understand the concept of engine failure. what causes engines to fail is poor maintainance and driver error (ie: mis-shifts). bumping the limiter ocassionally would not cause engine failure. i've taken the gts to streets of willow and solo2 events and whenever you see a powerful car on the track you always hear them hitting the limiter on certain corners to keep the powerband up. its okay to hit it once and awhile, but i don't suggest hitting it on every up-shift.




if the rev-limiter is ignition controlled its better for the car than fuel. the engine is still recieving fuel when it hits the limiter @6400rpms.
