Orange N Red Around Speedo

[k2sty1]

hey

just wondering, wat Speed and wat RPM do u guys have ur orange and red lights on at??

when i had the IS250 from Chatswood for 2 days, i set it to 60km/h as orange (lots of areas are a 60 zone) and red at 80km/h (on L's, not meant to go faster, ahahaha, but i "accidently" went 140 on the M2, DW!! no cars, it was like 5 in the morning, picking up my cousin from the airport)

and i cant rember if the RPM guages had a red light

but i had the orange light at 4000RPM

[k2sty1]

i pressed some buttons on the side

waitttt

i cant rember correctly but i thibk i did it by press the needle things that stick out the guages, the black stick thingys

and changed some settings on it

[ilv1004s]

u cant adjust red. on the rpm

it's just the rpm limit

yeah i have seen that but can you have one orange speed and one red speed?

[dis-lex-sic]

mines set at orange for 5500rpm and red for 6000rpm. speed wise its 90kms orange and 110 red!

1. You can only adjust the orange.

2. You can't adjust the red.

3. Red on rpm is higher than 6000rpm

4. There is no red on speed

Its a good feature in IMO but I find it strange thats its only on the IS250 but not on the IS-F.

haha yeah mate thats the dangerous zone.. Cevu did you say you changed yours

Spot on guys....'orange' is preset by the user, 'red' cannot be preset and is factory set at 200km/h and 6000 RPM.

A real pity that you cant set the red yourself, because I would love the red to kick in and say 110 km/h or something.

Cevu will have to let us all know how you get preset the red. I've asked my dealer twice, and they've said it can't be done.

it's one of those things u set and forget so maybe i thought i did it lol.... :-)

i'll fill u guys in as soon as ive checked!

[IronFist]

I set my Tacho to come on orange ~3500rpm as that's where most of the torque is.

Speedo set at 110km - After that going over the max speed limit.

Yeah it's one of those things you set when you first get the car and don't usually touch it again.

[DANSLEX]

Yep, the red ring on the speedo comes on at 200km+, and you cannot change it.

Here's mine, pic taken from my daily commute to work:

Sorry about crappy photo, bit hard holding the camera steady at this speed while changing lanes in slow traffic lol!

LOOL i forgive you for the crappy photo lol. There is the proof boys. haha. bet you wont be doing that too often. great photo to show off though. I have taken my car to 195km/h pulling away from a BMW 325. if i knew about the red then a woulda tested it too lol.

[DANSLEX]

Nah, I don't do it all too often. I find lollypop ladies near the school tend to get very mad when I do that.

j/k The above photo was taken while practicing on a private road. Ahem.
