Celica Forums General Discussion General RPM fuel cut off

i have a 2000 celica gts 6 speed and some one told me that the rpm fuel cut up its at around 8300rpm but when i was tring to see if i hit lift as soon as i got to 7500 the speed just whent down it just drop but it does not to it all the time well most of the time whats wrong? by the way i have no mods yet everything its stock could that be it ?

Dunno, I have a 2000 and I can take it above 8k so I can land in lift in the next gear.

Perhaps your engine was cold. When your engine is cold, the ECU won't engage lift as a protection method so the engine won't get damaged.

yea some one else told me that too it must be true cus every time i tryed it it was when the engine was still cold ill try it again tomorrow and let you know what happend after my engine is warm

I don't understand what you have just said. please read your post before you submit it.

Ok, and by warm, I mean when your temp needle goes from it's lowest point to at least one up.

He means that once he gets to 7500, his tach just drops as if he hit the fuel cut off.

yea that has happened to me one time and i thought i messed up my car but it is just that ur engine is cold. i got a 2000 gts 6 speed too and it only happenes when cold. i drove mine down the road move to see if it would happen again and it went right up to 8k fine so i was . to let you kno if you ever tried to race someone with a cold engine the fuel wil cut of in every gear. not a good idea to race cold. like you don't run a marathon cold.

I DID IT I DID IT I HIT 8200 RPM DROPED TO 6000 6100 AND I HIT LIFT IT FELT GREAT SH!T THIS CAR IS FAST
