1HD-T power band

WOW!!!

I've ran my 1HD-T to a max of 180kphr and have no trouble with it. I did it for about an hour and a half! But towing, that's another story

I would LOVE to hear about what you did to your engine to make it able to do that speed for 1.5 hours straight without damage, on what tires, whether you have a bull bar or roof rack and what the fuel consumption was, what kind of oil you were using, anything!

Pretty Please

Been wondering about this - i know - search - as most of you are all really familiar with these trucks... who's changed over?

hey have you ever considered loosing the full time 4wd? switch to manual lock hubs and you'll get a far better fuel economy I own a 1995 hdj80, 1hd-t, automatic, dual fuel tanks and it came with manual locking hubs and it is a vx not a gx model

i've driven 1hz powered buses, they sit on 3000rpm at 100kph thanks to s***ty gearing. at 110 it's about 3150 rpm. I've sat on that for hours on end, and the bus weighs abotu 3.5 tonne.

a 1hdt should do it easy. don't underestimate a toyota diesel's ability to rev.

also i've heard of someone running two 1hdt's in a boat, at 3500rpm (where max power is)

I'm amazed that anyone would want to run an 80 series up to 180 kph. I didn't even know they could go that fast.

max speed 177 KM/H for me. Measured with a GPS.
37' Good Year MT's 4:11 gears. 7' lift.

Kind of scary ....

Wow! At that speed, how much fuel does the truck consume? Any idea? Are aftermarket fuel meters available for this vehicle?

Thanks for your input!
