Hahah, 140 ? That's the end of 3rd gear my friend. And cats !!!! We don't need no stinking cats. Not to mention SA's didn't come with cats stock, thermal reactor baby. But that's long gone too, glad we don't have emissions testing on the island I'd be screwed.

 

155 MPH on the baltimore outer loop... in a friends 88 Toyota Supra with JSPEC 7MGTE and a T03/T04 at 14 PSI... at 155 he dropped it back into second, and lifted the nose up (not off the ground...) enough to show that the car had at least 20/30 mph left to go... hehe... unfortunately a few days later the water pump failed and he spun a rod bearing... sigh

 

yeah 210MPH... sounds like BS to me too... the Jaguar XJ220 is the worlds fastest production car, rolling off the show room floor will go 220 MPH... I'm not saying it's impossible to tune the benz out to go 210, but I hope to god you're not doing that on a public road, that's stupid. No amount of high performance break equipment will stop you short of a half mile.

 

The only Benz I know of that might go that fast is the CLK-GTR, which was produced in very small quantities.

 

RICE RACING did 200mph in his 1st gen. so anything's possible.

Before anyone yells BS here are the data logs that prove it.

 

I did 130 in 4th. Series 2 RX7.

 

~175mph (speedo was showing higher, but this is the actual speed) on two bikes, 1999 kawasaki ZX9R and 2001 Yamaha R1. Done this many times, makes for interesting passing (buzzing as i call it). Lane split between my wife and another car at 150 once (she actually wasn't mad at me).


Bikes are very different, they are very stable, while cars start getting scary on the top end.

145 in 1989 Camaro rioc 350

143 in 1994 z28 (had more left)

I'm putting a lt1 (late model camaro V8) into an FB, i'm curious to see how stable it will be.

 

lets keep em coming guys...

 

Just under 160mph on the front straight at Texas World Speedway.

 

I did 220 kmh in this little baby. about 136 mph @ 5700 rpm. rev limiter set at 7500 but was running out of road quick. BTW it did the 1/4 mile in 13.2

 

go look on ur speedometer...........it usually hasit in km right next to tha mph

 

well all i can claim is what the speedo stops at 85 in the 81 gsl street port dellorto blah blah... but i did draft a fd WELL over 120..... 120? in the 83 l.e. and i cruise@65% in the area of 210mph...gear up @ 90

 

Bullsh*t. Front straight on Willow Springs is 1000' and unless you've got jet propulsion, you weren't hitting 130.

 

Fastest iv been in a car is just under 160 MPH in a 88 T2 RX7. It was really stable. thing was on rails.

what tranny have you got? know the ratio of 5th by any chance? or you could give us what your rpm's are at any speed....

i want to know

 

If you give me your axle ratio, 5th gear ratio, and your out side tire diameter, then i can tell you how fast that was. For the tire diameter, a sewing cloth tape measure works best.

240km/h in the craziest mustang I have ever seen. This thing was CRAZY. I was getting a ride out to thestreet races and he took it wide open on the freeway. MY F***ing GOD. I was sh*ting my pants.

 

hehe i was jus jokin around, and yea i was just thinkin the exact same thing about teh no emmissions **** on teh island i looove it

 

In my buddies 1st gen COSMO conversion with T88 34D we had it clocked with radar gun (brother is a cop) 192MPH How ya like dem #'s

115 in my '90 GTU,

Note to self: much work to be done to attain these speeds...
