I come from a land down under
125 if it's in very good condition, mag test cars were topped out at 130 when fresh.

Thanks. I was just wondering because I'm getting an 89 and the guy is putting a basically new 7mge in it with only 20,000 miles.

130 by the speedo isn't even close to 130 in the real world sorry.

Mine was a good condition NA well tuned with low KM's and did a verified 125 max, might have gone a little faster with a downhill but on the flat that was it.

Wow im really suprized that yall have only got your 7m to 120/130.
I have a 87 7mge JDM motor 45,000 miles, everything stock, just no EGR. and ive had mine up to 145 plenty times. Mabye b/c I do maintenance by the book religiously.

I guess im just a lucky supra owner.

How did you verify 145? I've had mine pegged a few times, don't think it was 145, like IJ said the speedometers get more inaccaurate at the top end.

No it means you're foolish if you believe your 20 year old car somehow got faster then a prepped mag car back when they were new.... :nono:
