Typical speed & RPM on NS Highway?

(1/4) > >>

ashocker:
Hi all, like to check what is the typical speed & RPM recommended for the drive up Malaysia (highway)?

Just went on my 1st trip up north after 4yrs with the car. Car loaded: 5 adults + luggage enough for 2 days trip. I had to maintain ard 4000 RPM @ 140km/hr to keep up with my relative's car (Mazda 3) and at time have to increase to 5000 when going uphill.

Anyone know if there is any issue and what is the recommended range I should be at?

For those who are interested I was on Bridgestone Potenza (3wks ago), car was still rather stable (probably due to number of pple in the car), max speed I managed was ard 150+km/hr.

speedster:
went to malacca a few times. with 4 adults and no luggage rpm hovering ard 3-3.5 k at 140 and hitting 4.5k at 170.

Ender:
I feel our latio ramp above 3K, the engine is very noisy. As if it's under alot of stress..  DRive NSHW, usually above 3K to maintain 120-130km/j and sometimes I get worried..

ashocker:
Speedster's seems reasonable. Personally feel car was ok, but ya, rather noisy and seems to lack power whenever there is a gradual uphill slope.

speedster:
my average speed on nsh is 140-160. not denying the fact that the engine noise is high and soundproofing doesnt seem so good at high speed. on some occasion will hit a max of 175km/h and couldnt go any higher. till date have not experience and overheating like some bros have have encounter. i realise that travelling on nsh consume more fuel than my normal daily driving. is it normal?  :confused1:
