Top Speed - Yeahloesch8102 06-05-2003, 06:30 PM This, if no moderators mind, is an incriminating thread. Let's all hear about you guys trying to find out how fast your car goes. I know you all tried it. Somehow I managed to get my bone stock Integra LS, (just an intake), up to 130 on the dot trying to chase down my friend's highly modded Accord. He still has the governor though. 123 haha. No lying now. Self 06-05-2003, 10:42 PM 150+. Had the speedo buried and still felt pulling. Needed a digital. PWMAN 06-05-2003, 10:46 PM Somewhere between 140-150, I was racing a vette! Jetts 06-05-2003, 10:48 PM Originally posted by PWMAN Somewhere between 140-150, I was racing a vette! you got a turbo daytona? those things pull and damn they are fast we fried are friends racing people in it i loved that car got my vibe to 120 fastes i went probally could go faster lol my trucks has a govener at 97 lol PWMAN 06-05-2003, 10:51 PM Originally posted by 96Hatch you got a turbo daytona? Hell yeah!:D I don't think a non-turbo would get that fast, they are like 92 HP:( -The Stig- 06-05-2003, 11:03 PM 80mph in my Blazer... not governed... just wont pull any faster. Not bad for an old tired 350 pulling al 5200lbs along with turning 33" tires. Nova... with current gear ratio.. and motor ... should probably do about 140-150max... go 3.08 gears!. At those speeds it becomes a brick through air and is limited aerodynamicaly... and where horsepower will decide how fast you go... hahaha. But with 3.73s like what I want... I'd say 140ish... Dont really care haha... It'll be fast enough for me and I dont plan to drive on the freeway much to want a 'highway battler'. :p Jetts 06-05-2003, 11:05 PM Originally posted by PWMAN Hell yeah!:D I don't think a non-turbo would get that fast, they are like 92 HP:( sorry lol i guess it was kinda of a stupid question but those daytonas are fun stuff BlkCamaroSS 06-06-2003, 12:18 AM I've had mine in the 140-145 mph range. Too much adrenaline on the road I was driving on to try to peg the needle... KrNxRaCer00 06-06-2003, 12:56 AM lil over 130...had some room left to go, but ran outta road. killah_xft 06-06-2003, 01:55 AM well, I've taken my 99 accord up to 110 on the highway SL is 65, I could have gone higher, but was enteing a city where the cops suck... I bet I could get it well over 130 with all stock.. and when I did the 110 it was all stock, that was just after I bought it.. the Truck which is a 00' 3500 custom GMC duelly with the 01' drivetrain, I've never taken that thing to the limit, fastest I've gone is 90 it gets kinda unstable at higher speeds.. the 98' subaru forester I've taken up to 95, and I'm pretty sure it'd go up to 120-130. NarutoRamen 06-06-2003, 02:05 AM I did 121 and then had to hit the brakes cuz i heard a noise from my back tires...turned out to be nuttin...oh well....hey am i correct when i say that 98-02 accords have a engine cut off at 128?? killah_xft 06-06-2003, 02:41 AM I think the limit I read in the manual is 123mph... but I said , or I think I said 130+ with stock... guess I was'nt thinking... I could always remove the governor though.. and if I was really into top speed I could replace the top gear with a 1:1 gear... I can't remember the stock gear ratios on my car.. David_B 06-06-2003, 02:46 AM My mr2 spyder I was bouncing off the rev limiter at 130. Then in my stock 99 civic si I got 115 in 4th gear...ran outta road. Then in my 93 trans am I burried the speedo(155) and still pulling. YogsVR4 06-06-2003, 11:59 AM Deep in the 150s and may have broke the 160s but I was to busy watching the road to look down and I won't try and drive that fast with a passenger.

Did this back in October of 2002 in the middle of wyoming. Specs 1991 Civic LX 4 door SOHC ZC swap Short Ram Intake Bosch premium wires and plugs High Flow Cat Performance Muffler Lightweight Civic VX rims My car is still slow as fuck and would probably hit low 17's in the 1/4. Even with the swap I am madd limited by this Dual Point Fuel Injection shit. carrrnuttt 06-06-2003, 04:01 PM 159-160MPH - in my old (modified, N/A QUAD 4, 4-banger) Beretta GTZ, bouncing off the rev-limiter, while being paced by my roomie on his modified GSX-R. 155+/-MPH (approximation) - in my old 1990 Integra GS (modified, N/A b16a, 10,000RPM limit). Had my speedo pegged (145) trying to keep up (and did) with an old co-worker's modified Yamaha YZF. I basically stayed steady behind him until he started pulling when the laws of physics took over my car. He told me the next day that he only started to slowly walk away when his speedo registered 160MPH. For the non-believers, he never downshifted and stayed in sixth...that's why I kept up. 130MPH - in my last car, the Civic LX (stock motor, modifed with all the bolt-ons possible, with ignition goodies and aftermarket piston rings). This was up to redline in fourth gear. The speed governor kicked in at about 127 in fifth. 120MPH - so far in my current car, the SE-R (bone freakin' stock!). Speedo reads up to 150MPH, but I doubt if the car can go much over 130MPH. Not bad for a bone stock, 11-year-old "econocar" though. Oh, and before I forget, I got a ride as a passenger in someone else's Ferrari TestaRossa. Took me up to 170MPH. I think. Might've been faster, but I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention to the speedo...I was being shocked, scared and mesmerized all at the same time by how fast cars (in other lanes) seemed to come up. grrrr 06-06-2003, 06:15 PM you do realize that at those speeds your spedometers arent too accurate right? You're not gonna get to much higher then what the car is governed at. Unless it has been ungoverned... Say like in my case my 92 lude is governed at what 138mph.... but hell i could see 145-150mph... one way to kinda know what your car is factory governed at is to check the speed rating of the oem tires..... oh and the highest i got mine was up to 125-130 and i believe i was only on 4.5-5 rpms.... but wasnt really looking at my speedometer if you know what i mean. carrrnuttt 06-06-2003, 06:29 PM Originally posted by grrrr you do realize that at those speeds your spedometers arent too accurate right?

First off, I had a custom ECU running the b16...no governor and with a strong motor that pulled all the way to the 10,000RPM redline. Second, I know how inaccurate Honda analog speedos are when you get to speeds that they were never meant to be driven in. This is why I based my speed claims on that one on the speed my friend's bike was travelling at. His speedo on that bike went up to 180MPH, I believe. Same thing with the Beretta. I would never make a top-speed claim if I had no way verifying the speed I was at. The GTZ's speedo reads only to 130MPH. Lastly, with the Civic, I pulled an I/E 2000 Civic Si on the freeway top-end. Most people, including magazine testers know that the Si stock tops out at about 130. After I pulled on him, about 2 cars, we stayed in exactly the same spot, with me bouncing-off my limiter in fourth. I know I couldn't have done that in fifth. Fifth was just basically a gas-saver gear for that car, since it went faster in fourth due to the governor in fifth. As for the Ferrari T/R, inaccurate or not, the speeds we were going was...the opposite of slow:D.

Are we talkin like 2 or 3 mph, or more like 10? knorsk 06-07-2003, 02:31 AM my Honda Accord that Loesch was talkin' about only gets up to 120 'cause of the governor. It has big ol' 17's on it and is stripped of about 150lbs. It still feels like it has a lot of pull left but when I hit the governor I get freaked out when it kicks on because it's not a little let off the gas feeling.

Yup, thats right - blew me away too when I found out last summer. I was on the 401 west from T.O heading to London, Ontario and I wanted to finally run out 3rd gear in my Camaro (4-speed auto with stock 2.93 gears). So I hammered it at about 120 Kph, rev'd 2nd gear up to 6000 RPM then 3rd gear screached in at 140 Kph (approx. 85 Mph). Well damned if 3rd gear didn't go from 140 Kph right up to 240 Kph! - hello 4th - and we're still going. After about 7-8 seconds of acceleration with the needle in no mans land I backed off (but the car had been still been pulling and had a LOT of RPM to go before 6000 - someday I'll see how high it can go). NinjaPoweredAccord 06-10-2003, 05:12 PM My almost 13 year-old accord (her birthday is sept. 28 1990) did 123 mph.

Before he exited, he opened up and took his all the way to the 155 limit!!!:sunglasse Me and my friend (riding shotgun) could only watch as he pulled away. I shed a tear of respect and went on my merry way. This was before I slapped those heavy ass Motegi 18's on my car though. I could probably hit 123 or so with them on. They are heavy as hell and kill my gas mileage, but DAMN do they look good on my car! (If I may say so myself) Jay! 06-27-2003, 01:57 PM A few years ago I took my '89 Accord up to 110 in 4th gear.

I just have a little fun raggin on American V6s. They just don't ever seem to be able to pull all the performance out of those engines. Even after supercharging (as GM LOVES to do) they don't use all the engine's potential. I'm not saying they are all slow cuz a 4 cylinder accord isn't exactly a speed demon itself, but there's so much unused potential in the Grand Am's Grand Prixs, Malibus, Taurus's, Intrepid's, etc. Its about time they supercharged the Grand Am tho. Its been such a whipping boy for the past decade. I hate those new Pontiac G Prix commercials though, where the guy is using the button shifting on the steering wheel and when he shifts UP the rpms go UP too!?!:eek7: Maybe people who don't pay much attention to cars (or commercials) wouldn't catch that, but I saw it and was like WTF!

I had a 94 RS, so I had no weight of moonroof/AC/CC which probably doesnt save too much weight, but had intake, DC 4-2-1, and exhaust and had a whole freeway and once I got to about 110, it slowed way down and i hit 117 but tookreal long, couldve gotten 120 with lots of room, but didnt. and I know autos gears are longer but a 5 speed has more of them, so maybe your OD and a 5 speed civics 5ths are the same, but I think yours might be even higher and thats nmot good trying to accelerate from 100+ and dont quote me but I heard that an automatic steals like 5-10% more power at the wheels. PWMAN 07-06-2003, 11:33 PM It's mostly the torque converter that make an auto trans top out early. The TC slips about 1000+ RPM more than a manual trans. So if you are doing for example 80 in a 5 speed and it's doing 3000 RPM, in an auto it's doing probably 4000 RPM, gearing assumed the same of course. But the overdrive on a 5 speed is higher geared, but the main difference is the TC. frozen_Joth 07-07-2003, 01:35 PM Are you refering to my car???

I could hit 125 in my 97 DX coupe, and about the same in my current 00 DX hatch (with its original D16). They are both 5 speeds, but still they have less power than an EX.

Gradyman25 07-11-2003, 12:52 PM i've never been to the atl dragstrip, honestly, i hate to say it,but i didnt know there was one in the area, hit me up and tell me where it is and i'l have to go somtime sihondasracer 07-12-2003, 01:17 AM ive done 140 in 4th gear in a totally stock GTI 1.8T...2002....its quick top end sihondasracer 07-12-2003, 01:23 AM ive done 140 in 4th gear in a totally stock GTI 1.8T...2002....its quick top end YOUNGSTER 07-16-2003, 02:54 PM i hit 128 why though i dont understand my car should be fast than that well i thought i think its because i need a intake tube to the air box. 00accord44 07-16-2003, 02:57 PM This is before or after your b18 swap??? Intake would help. Basically anything to help the engine breathe better in the top end as well as your gearing. YOUNGSTER 07-16-2003, 03:12 PM after , it picks up to 120 quick than it hesitates 00accord44 07-16-2003, 03:22 PM That's gotta be a breathing problem. Even if you change your high end gearing, but if you ain't breathin right, you won't go anywhere. This is where the fun of tuning comes in. not a lot of people really concentrate on their top speed as much as their 0-60 and 1320. I guess cuz figuring out how to raise your ceiling is a bit harder than figuring out how to jump higher off the floor. :jump3: :bananasmi streetrcr45 07-16-2003, 07:43 PM 120 in dads 94 accord ex Sid77 07-16-2003, 09:40 PM 156 in a 97 Grand Prix stock hitting the rev/speed limiter burried the analog guage and was only reading on the HUD. 115 in a 84 VW rabbit convertible with the 1.8 GTI motor scariest 115 mph of my life!!!! It would of kept going but i did not trust the suspension setup or tires or motor ect... lol 131 in my current 96 Teg but it would've kept going but the roads in texas where I was at suck and did not trust my tires to hold up to those potholes at 131 mph. gti1689 07-20-2003, 10:56 AM before i took away my gti's limiter i could only get up to 130 (ovbiously b/c thats when it kicked in). now that i've taken it off i've done 140, b ut i stopped b/c of traffic and the engine seemed to be closing in on its top speed (had 2 shift from 4th into 5th at around 135). damn good for a stock 174hp vr6 with a chip (add bout 10 crank hp for the chip, so we'll call it 184hp. there) YOUNGSTER 07-22-2003, 12:59 AM it is a breathing problem i have the stock air box but not the intake tube so the throttle body is sitting there unprotected but prolly tomorrow im gonna go to a wrecking yard to pick up a stock gsr intake pipe 00accord44 07-22-2003, 10:07 AM Sounds like a good idea. If your pocket allows, you might as well get a little more room to breathe and pick up a full intake system from AEM or somebody. sweetcarz.com 07-22-2003, 01:31 PM Civic Hatch-120mph CRX-115 Supra-135 S2000-110 only cars I have driven to respectable speeds spooleffect 07-22-2003, 06:11 PM My Jeeps speedo only goes to 85 but I got it back to 0, so ~115-120 maybe? It felt like it could have kept going but the suspension started getting squirlly. That was with my long ass ratios with the 3speed w/ OD AW4. ~130 '90 SAAB 900 Turbo Id like to drive a 911 GT2 on a nice long interstate:biggrin: 94tegRS 07-22-2003, 10:03 PM whats the limiter on a 3rd gen GSR at? is it the same as the 2nd gen GSR? Barwick 07-23-2003, 04:11 PM geez.. my car gets up to 125 before I even know it. Never had space on the track to get into 5th gear though on a top speed run. I imagine it'd do about 165 or so. Cyprus106 07-29-2003, 03:38 PM I got to 120 on the highway once being real late trying to get back to a paintball tourney my team was playing in. :D being teh leader typically means you have to SHOW UP. while cruising 120 my friend yelled cop. sure nuff he was sitting on the side of the road i though for sure that was it... jail time. I slow down, he pulls out and i thought he was going to chase me down. Instead he went across all 4 lanes on the highway and kept going. I shit a brick. Never went over 85 for at least the next 8 months. 94tegRS 07-30-2003, 06:21 PM I drove about 105-115 for about 35 miles going up our island cuz I was gonna be late to traffic school if i didnt.
