What do you rev to?

[Shell]

I was asked by someone what I usually rev to thru each gear and when I told him about 4 grand, he said "all you R33 owners are the same! Why do you rev so high?"

When my car is cold I don't rev that high - i try not to use any boost at all...but during normal driving, i always rev to about 4 grand!

soooo what do you guys usually rev to?

ps i think I've used the word "rev" far too many times in this post

When cold I rev to 3000 revs.

When normal about 3 - 4 revs.

[U WERE MINE]

when its cold no more than 2500..

and depends on driving .. but if im driving normal i will short shift it.. no more than say 3000 in each gear..

i always shift at 5-6 grand...cold or warm.

lol dam grim.. thats harsh.. especially when its cold..

well i only had my car for 5 days (it should be fixed in the next few days ) but i usually reved to about 2500-3000 just in normal suburban driving.. but when goin for a 'spirited' drive i usually go to about 5500 or 6500 in each gear...

3500-4000 warm

2500 cold (try to keep it off boost)

REDLINE baby REDLINE

I hate rev limiters!!! they slow you down.. but i guess if i didn't

have it there i wouldn't have an engine!

Normal driving... about 4.5thou

[Guest | hype^ |]

what does the rev limiter allow ya to rev to in a r33?

[XrSiSt]

I think once it brushes red zone it will start to bounce... I'm

more interested in keeping my eyes on the road..

[U WERE MINE]

7200 it start bouncin

[two40]

mine cuts at whatever i set it to. ahh, the wonders of the pfc.

i've got it set to 7k

[U WERE MINE]

PORGie i will join ure power fc gang before u know it ..

porgie it will handle 8 grand

[PranK]

i am the same - no boost when cold..

warm, around 4K... i guess.

sprinting - off rev limiter, i am used to the 8200 rev limiter in my old N13..

[two40]

i'm not in the mood to blow my engine though.

There is ONLY ONE import owner with a manual who doesn't worry me, and he's rarely on here. You lot are mad! Revving to 4000rpm all the time during normal driving! THEN you complain about fuel consumption... :lol: whyyyyyy. I think its because you are all so isolated and insulated from whats going on.

Unless gearing or conditions dictate otherwise, i shift at around 2000rpm now. Hot or cold. I used to go up to 3000rpm sometimes if i was in a bit of a hurry, to punch up a hill or something, but now im really povo (fuel), and plus, if im not going hard, its not fun anyway, just gonna wear the engine more.

funny thing is, the one import driver i mentioned has a modified Vspec. Cuts sick on track days though.

This is a pet peeve of mine, if you hadn't guessed.

P.S. Used to own a 20,000rpm roadbike, at 6000rpm it was still doughy as poop.

u revaholic

I shift at no more then 3,000 when the car is cold.

I shift at around 4,000 to 4,500 for normal city driving.

I shift at around 8,000 to 8,750 when drag racing, depends on what gear I am in to how far I take it.

[ex-static]

yea im not a big revver either.. daily driving around 2500, but when I have a bit of a squirt usually a fair whack past 5500 as she really likes to get up and dance then.

Hey hirisk do you have stock internals in your car if so do they take that kind of reving easily cause with my GTR i have a big single and id love to remove the cut at 8000 to get a bit more from the turbo. When it only starts boostin at 5 i would like all the revs i can come across, thanks.

[kabab]

3000rpm when cold

6000 - 6500rpm when fanging

4000rpm when cruising

9250rpm by accident i can't believe she is still going !!!!!
