Tachometer Reading at Cruising Speed

--- Quote from: CustomGolf on August 03, 2008, 01:35:48 PM ---That is precisely what I'm trying to explain, it shows 100kmh and tacho is 2.4k rpm, I'm going above 100kmh but it's not registered. It just don't show up in your meter dial so it should show the same no matter what tyres you're on. Those 2 figures are constant no matter what rims and tyres you're on unless you go calibrate. So where did the variance come from if every one is using the same gear box ratio and same calculation of tyre circumference.

:smile: thats is the reason why I always advise my associates when they change their sizes over the 2% mark, against stock.....
the actual speed will not be reflected on the meter.

I manage to get 2000rpm at 100kmh cruising on a flat load without passenger and empty boot. Petrol I am using is either Caltex RON 98, Shell RON 98 or Vpower. Stock rim and tyre.
May be because my car still less than 3 months old.
Haha

If the size is incorrect, you are likely to get incorrect speedometer reading.

Brother follow the link http://forum.thelatioclub.org/index.php?topic=364.0, we're not talking about incorrect speedo reading in the thread here but the relation between speedo reading and RPM reading.
clarence:
An incorrect speedo reading will affect your rpm reading too.
For example, if because of your incorrect upgraded tyre size, your speedo reading is faster than the actual speed by 3%.
Hence, when your speedo shows 100km/h, you are actually travelling at only 97km/h.
