hey this one is for all you guys who own 92-95 civics and civics in general.. seeing as how the 92-95 does not come stock with an rpm gauge whats the farthest you have pushed your car in each gear? 1st... 2nd.. and 3rd and so on.. Just wondering how far i could push it with out damaging my motor.. keep in mind my car is completely stock.
Any input would be appreciated

 

I have a basically stock d15b7 with some bolt ons and take mine up to 7k at the track in each gear.(mind you I have a cam and am running a p28 ecu thats why I take it up that far.) Only running the p28 because of the fuel maps and higher redline

 

thanks for the input illusive but i think you misunderstood my question because i have no idea when im in what rpm because of the fact that i have no rpm gauge and i was wondering at what speeds others have pushed their cars and in what gears.. and still did no damage to the motor... .. anyone else?

 

O haha thought you were asking how high you can take your car in rpms...haha sorry my bad

You don't necessarily want to go by this chart. This just shows the redline. You'll want to get out of gear before these speeds due to power band drop off. I set the light on my tach at 6200 rpms which is about 32/61/93mph...and that's all the more you need to know since you probably won't be hitting 124mph.

 

Actually if you still have the OEM manual, the maximum allowable speed for each gear is indicated there.
