I got my unmodified 2008 Yaris over 180KPH driving from Isaan to Bangkok several times with little effort. I paid over 1800 baht to buy the best synthetic motor oil available (Mobil One from USA) and that seems to really help both the top end and my fuel economy. I think the electronic governor kicks in at 180 because it suddenly stopped accelerating although it seemed to have power and pedal left. GREAT CAR WELL ENGINEERED AND CAME NEW WITH NO DEFECTS

Your tires.. are ment to be inflated to what it says on them, if you want high speed. you need to get higher rated speed tires.. they go by letters.

Ahem, I'd like to announce that I've hit ~185 (One hundred and eighty five) km/h a couple days ago. Sadly no video for that one (Because I'm not bad enough dude to record a video while driving at 185 km/h).To accomplish this, I've over-inflated the tires to 40 PSI (For everyday driving, save gas, great slide). The ride was not too harsh but the car was shaking like hell when I went past 160 km/h.So guys, try it! 10 PSI over-inflation gives you 10 km/h faster top speed!!!

Already done that. Watch my another video. 175 km/h on that expressway.

Dude next time use a better strech of road. I drive on this road everyday to work and as you know its crap and falls to bits in the wet season. Use the tollway from muangthong northwards next time. No police and much flatter.

that's true, when you reach 190 km/h it happens a fuel cut or something like that, and can't get more speed |
