Default Engine vibration on 6500 RPM - LR3 2005

Once I want to push the accelerator to the maximum

Here is the result

2005 LR3 LHD
Transmission - P (parking)
Press accelerator to maximum
Rather than 8000 RPM as per seen in dashboard, only around 6500-6700 RPM maximum can be achieved and engine start vibrate, is it normal?

If not what to do?

Thanks mate

I do not believe it is a good idea to do that in Park. How is it under normal driving conditions... What let you do feel the need to do it while parked?

Does an LR3 have a rev. limiter?

It's normal, but really, you shouldn't be holding the engine against the rev limiter in Park. That's a good way to overheat some important things, like the torque converter for example.

No, I do not believe there is a rev limiter, you can just blow it apart... but why would you want to do that?

I'm positive that it has a rev limiter. Everything has a rev limiter.

My 1988 Pontiac (Daewoo) LeMans had a rev limiter at 6k, and that car was a complete piece of ****. My Taurus SHO has a rev limiter at 7250 RPM. My motorcycle has a rev limiter at 12k RPM.

The LR3 definitely has a rev limiter.

Logic says it would have a rev limiter, but... Can't say I've ever tried, nor would I want to.

To the original post -- Yes, at over 6000 rpms, any v8 engine should have some vibrations, now knock it off.
