OverDose Posted January 14, 2005 Report Posted January 14, 2005 I've downshifted from the high end of 4th into 3rd in my mates CA silvia while braking hard for a corner. The tacho went well into the 8000 range. Lucky my mate the owner was drunk at the time. He thought it was cool. ive seen one that reved to 9250rpm.. crazy i tend to use engine breaking and breaking.. make sure everydownshift doesnt excede the redline... Quote

irokin Posted January 15, 2005 Report Posted January 15, 2005 In manual 5 speed cars, if you can push the gear stick far enough south, it starts to select reverse. Reverse in an auto while driving forwards? uhhhhhhhh............. right SHOULDNT be possible on toyota boxes if your coming out of 5th. There is a lockout gate on every 5spd I can think of. That is unless your box is completely f@$ked in the ass. Quote
Teddy Posted January 15, 2005 Report Posted January 15, 2005 yeah, some of them are so worn down its still there, but insted of having to go from 5th to middle of N then into R, you can go 5th, down into N then give it a lil wobble and it pops straight into R -> Mine is still good tho :) Quote
irokin Posted January 15, 2005 Report Posted January 15, 2005 even with my raped 5spd It wouldnt even budge into reverse if you even LOOKED like you might be going for 5th Quote
irokin Posted January 15, 2005 Report Posted January 15, 2005 ................. you might wanna try and reset the ecu caws when it goes for the next service chances are these guys are gonna be able to look and see what the error code was. Quote
