Ok I know that these aren't bulit for speed but it's fun to go fast, so I wondering how fast have you gone in your t4r?


I'll start it off I personally went 100mph today, I think it has a few more mph left in ner but it was almost all the way down.

95MPH...the fastest I will ever go; gets really squirrely.

It's not worth the risk in a big SUV
 
Ive pegged it out once before when I was running late ... not going to do that again it was super sketchy
 
around 105~109 or so in Nevada, long long straight road with a big down hill at one point, there was some weird submarine facility out that way in the middle of the desert , could have been Utah...dunno just know that was as fast i ever went in my truck and as fast as i will ever go in my truck as there is just not that many "reasonably safe" places to be doing that sort of speed in a truck like this and this was also before the lift and tires ect.... i'll just be clear in saying that driving that speed in almost any suv is inherently dangerous.....
 
I've hit 90 a couple times in both trucks, usually because some a-hole wants to speed up while i'm trying to pass.

The '01 could/would peg the speedo easy... @ 90 it still has plenty of GO left in it.

I did 160 once in my old MK3 Supra, redlining in top gear. The dashed lines on the road turn into one solid blur, along with everything else out the side windows. Brake rotors warp quickly when you try to slow from that kind of speed with any urgency. My seatbelt suddenly felt quite inadequate as a safeguard for my health and well being. The consequences of a blowout would have been deadly.

I feel the speed that would be equivalently unsafe in a 4Runner would be about 100 mph.
 
A tad over 100mph on a wide open, gentle downhill section south of Bloomfield, NM. Sketchy and not too smart.
 
85mph. Surprisingly, it didn't feel that fast...probably because i'm not lifted and on stock size tires. Even then, I doubt I'll ever go any faster. What's the rush? You get there when you get there. Enjoy the drive. ;)
 
Probably 90 tops. They're not real confidence inspiring at high speeds so I don't do it.

Saw 155 out of my 540i/6 and 159 on the dash of my C5 Vette. 181 on my R1. I can blame the Vette and the R1 on being young and stupid. The 540 was just grown up me playing with my new toy.
 
107mph on the 40 going to the river. kept it there for a minute or so then decided i would never do that again. this was years ago when my truck was stock
 
I took it to the limit once. It felt really sketchy even on a flat, clean straight away. Lived through it, so that's the last of that.
 
90 stock on a road trip from Norcal to Socal. Truck felt fine on I-5, and this is before I spent several thousand on maintenance/upgrades. Since the lift and tires, I'm not particularly sure. I'm too lazy to do the math and I keep putting off buying a GPS.
 
I thought i came close to 100 but this was on a closed coarse. :jump:

100, but it's been several years and it was completely stock. It felt surprisingly smooth and stable and like it still had some left. I'll still get it to 85-90 occasionally if I'm passing, but I don't make a habit of it.
