			the max speed you can get whiht your gearing is 175 mph 
but that takes alot of power to do that and the gears int eh rex are really crappy i find    
most likly why they did this is to save on gas that is the only thing i can think of      
all be nice and give you 200 hp and you will only get 147 mph 
that still not up to the speed your bragging about    
math does not lie  in less you found big i mean big hill    
your rex has no turq to push thous gears that are stock  that why i find em so funky    
now read below    
stock setup whith 4.10 you will hit 129 mph this is on level ground 
stock setup whith 4.30 you will hit 130 mph  this is on level ground   
my car will hit 148  whiht my gearing  i hit 150 to my speedo    
but as you speed incress you speedo goes off about 10 to 20 klich  in less it cumpter controled thing ti will be all ways perfect   
you can flame me all you want be it is the turth   
play grand turismoe if you do not beleaiv me and put your gearing in and you will find out    
hell do some math and you will find out    
4.30 is better rear end by long shot for you cars caues there gear is to crazy but you gas milage will suffer

			Nashman, thanks for takin the time to reply. Made some good sense, but how many times must you be told, this is an rx7 forum, thanks for tellin us we have no torque, and thanks for lettin us know how fast your supra can go. But please, this is an RX7 forum, and there are quite a few people that are tired of reading about supra's!

			My friend's got an FD with some mods and it will have a time getting to 260 kph.  Sorry for the scepticism, but it seems too fast for an NA rotary. That's all.

			i brought up my gear ratio you dumb ass what has that got to do whiht me talkign about supar's   
as i said befor  i never bring up my dame car  and brag in any way how fast it is    
175mph is posilbe but  getting up there take very long time  in less on hill caues the car whould never reach thous speed on flat groud      
that i find whould be the best for the rex na is the turbo trans whith the 4.30 rear end whould help alot  hell it make that car pretty mean if you ask me    
but the qestion is will it blot up my guess is yes it will        
oh yae greg last night was fun got to love spare set of tires  i wish i had a pair    
maybe i duck tape yours on my car hehehehe

			All he's saying is you manage to mention your supra in just about every single post, and it gets a little annoying. Wether or not you realize it it sounds like you are constantly comparing the 2 and you always make it sound like the RX-7 comes up short.  
Yes last night was a blast. God bless a pair of old phone dials and a good amount of rain.

			well nashmans "theory" is off...he forgot to put the weight of the car in there...weight and areodynamics are also hugr factors when trying to reach your top speed along with gearing...gearing isnt the only thing though...   
WTF r u rx7's boys talking about...so far i have only got 220km/h in 4th at redline and in my old car i got 210km/h in 4th redline again in my n/a.....u guys either need to get your speedo's checked and/or change or u need to stop lying!!!!!!!!!!  
150mp/h could be achieved in a stock TII with a long straight and flat strech...a n/a could probably fetch 135 mp/h stock!...  
also post this on rx7club.com and they will laugh at u like this hahhahah

			but the qestion is will the turbo trans bolt up to the na block    
and are the trans the same size  caues if not you will have to get new drive shaft  and when you do that you go alloy hehehe      
and the 4.30 will have ot be put in to to compete the sweet  grear ratio     
but as i said be for you gass will suffer    
the cool thing about the turbo trans is the 5th gear  will not burn as much gas as if you where to use the na trans it not huge  btu it is there

			I just read a bunch of the post's in here. Some interesting info all in all, although some people need spell check and punctuation lessons...jaysus...for a sec I though someone was actually referring to btu's, but they really just meant "but".

			Both cars are in the same class?!?! what a fucking SPORTS CAR!!! 
wow thats some amazing info...u are one hell of a researcher...   
also the n/a and TII have different drive train so they MIGHT have different size tranny's......   
GEAR RATIO"S GET THEM RIGHT 
all lsd models 
86-88 n/a 4.33 or 4.10 (2 different lsd) 
89-92 n/a 4.10  GTUs n/a 4.33    
Im pretty sure the n/a and TII's have the same gear ratios..i will check up on that
