Performance (Factory and Period Road Tests)

Model	0-100 km/h	Quarter Mile	Top Speed
2JZ-GTE Turbo (V160 manual)	4.6 s	~13.0 s @ 170 km/h	250 km/h (electronically limited)
2JZ-GTE Turbo (auto)	5.2 s	~13.5 s	250 km/h (limited)
2JZ-GE NA (manual)	6.5 s	~14.8 s	235 km/h
2JZ-GE NA (auto)	7.2 s	~15.5 s	225 km/h

Note: The electronic speed limiter is set at 250 km/h (180 km/h on some JDM models). With the limiter removed, the turbo model is capable of approximately 285 km/h.

Note: Period road tests consistently recorded 0-100 km/h times of 4.6-5.0 seconds for the turbo manual, figures that embarrassed many contemporary European sports cars costing twice the price.
