I can't see that page but I think I know what it is. http://forum.e46fanatics.com/s...15589 is that the same story.

Yes I agree that going that fast is stupid and way to dangerous. I have done it in the past but don't drive like that any more. I have read too many stories like this one to know that no one is immortal and it is only a matter of time before it happens to you or someone you know.

 

even the ss can go 140

 

4th gen VTEC is gear-limited at 140mph

 

the fastest ive gone was 125 mph in my 98 Type SH, i have a video i downloaded off kazza hitting 155 mph on the freeway

 

Hit the speed limiter in my Z at 155Mph..

 

ive took my sh up to 145mph it took a long time to get there

 

I have hit 140 at about 7200rpms and kept going.....145ish in the RED!
Why the hell can 5th gens go 150?
What mods actually raise top-speed?

 

Ive had my 99 sh up to 145 b4 i ran out of road...corner came up real quick at 145..it took a long time to get from 140-145..that was with 2 people in the car...prob coulda hit 150 with another mile

 

I've taken mine to 155....fun but stupid, but fun

that's about right
i dont know why people all jack up their mph... maybe they are going down the mountain... or they have fictionless body kits etc.... or maybe that's really what they are seeing on the speedo? i dont know...
but this is what i found from just gear ratios, rpm, slip, and tire diameter to back up what i'm saying

 

i have taken my SH to 149 and i still had room to go as in RPM wise but the freeway had a turn coming up and to be honest it didn't take that long, 140+ yea but not to get around 135.

I'm curious as to how you magically did that considering that mathematically you would have had to be way over the stock rev limit and the speedo doesn't read 149 for another thing and you had 'room to spare'

 

I've had mine to about 135.

 

3rd Gen stock------ 132mph tops

 

its easy, he has a fifth gen. which reads to the dot up to 150(I know theres innacuracy in speedo, but not much)

 

first off, yes it does read 149, it goes up to 150 on the speedo and since i do have a prelude 2 of em in fact, and 2nd u did read other ppl saying they took it to 145 right? so there for it is possible and dont talk to me about htat happening or not and that magic bull **** cuz why didn't u say nethign to them when they said they took it that far up and i was about at 7.0-7.3 rpm or a lil lower when i did that and not once i have done it many times and the last day i had my lic. i ran a GST on the freeway playing catch at about 142 at 6,700 rpm or so

 

i find it funny how SOO many ppl around here tend to TRY to talk soo big and try to make ppl look like an *** but when they are wrong in TRYING to do so and make themselves look like an ***, so instead of talking soo big and **** ask questions dont just throw BS comments

been to 145 with room to go. just not the ***** to go lol.

unless you do tranny mods you will not go higher. just get there faster.

 

lol it never fails, Yeah a brand new maxima tested me quite nicely past 140 I quit looking at speedo as I was 2-4 inches ahead of him and approaching my exit/ (It may have been a bad driver or an auto)

Kepp it on the track.

I am a member on Bimmerforums and I have been on a few of the local Maryland drives. There always has to be a few morons who think they are going to impress us all by driving like idiots!! The last one I went to a moron in a VW GTi showed up and decided to drive like a typical teenaged kid.....luckily he only wrecked his car.

I have to pay high car insurance because of the typical immature male "kids" behind the wheel.
Keep it on the track.
