post your top speed

i bought my 93 SR about half a year ago. a 16 year old kid owned it, and was selling it b/c he lost his license in the first two weeks he owned it. anyhow, he asked me if i wanted to test drive it. i really didn't need to, b/c i knew how nice they were, but for kicks i took it out on this really bad road and wound it up to 130. i wish all of you coulda seen his face. he looked as if he was gunna cry he was so scared. espcially when it got airborn around 90 on one of the hills on the road.

121 at 4800 rpm in 5th in my 93 Si, and i can rev it to 8000 so i still had a little ways to go. you can see what i have on my page below, theres too much to list here.

95 in a 97 lude, but that was a test drive, i dont have a car yet. looking at the lude and teg gsr's plus a couple others for my first car. (i have a truck now)

146 mph in my 99 base h22a4 USDM stock
i have managed a 151 after installing the Greddy kit + intercooler, granted i got there much faster having a extra 80 hp hehe
faster i've ever ran was 177 in my dad's friend's supra TT, he owns a used car dealer ship and i asked if he would let me take it out for a day, it had an HKS single turbo and a custom intake manifold, really wide Blitz intercooler, and was running Michelen Pilots....
scared the shit outa me

the fastest ive ever had my 98 turbocharged lude was 168mph i was interstate 81 racing a nissan 240sx with a sr20det swap he had me most of the way but caught him around 135mph, it was the greatest filling ive ever experienced.

my fastest is in my 93' explorer, i got to 85 but then the car started to shake.

'92 lude w/ apexi n1 and aem intake.. 145mph :) just driving along w/ a friend around 3am

135 in my 92 si. way early and hung over. barely got a rush tho cuz i was still hurting from previous night

127mph on a 3-lane highway at 1:30 am....in my stock civic ha ha

playing around with my friend...windows down, sunroof open, radio booming

just got it out of the dealership cuz of a minor repair, he was in his '89 Maxima SE, i was in my 97 base & stock prelude

i took the lead...he was on my ass the whole way up (literally). i think he was trying to draft me a bit...

he topped out at 120 (most likely due to his cracked exhaust manifold) ... i kept going and climbed to 125-130 (i was keeping my eyes on the road, and not so the speedo) straight into some more traffic, jumped a few lanes here and there, and finally came down

i was riding in 5th gear...around 5k rpm, so i could've probably hit around 130-145, even a tiny bit more with the windows and sunroof closed.

PS. the dealership was nice enough to fill my tank...so i was probably running with regular gas (eek! nothing below 91 oct. for my baby) not to mention dealership oil (i had recently bought the car)

110 in my VTEC 01 Lude, mods below. Still had room in the RPMs obviously, but I came to my turn-off. I was racing an Auorora - but that's a story for the street racing forum. I'll post it sometime soon.

ive had my 5th gen prelude up to the 151 mark, that is where the rev limiter kicked in, what a rush

side by side, 140 redlining 4th against my friend's S2000. Cold night helped my performance considerably. Radar went off so we both had to slow down real quick.

153Mph (245km/h) on 8250RPM in my ´97 with H22A5 engine in Argentina, all OEM with exception on the ECU

105 in a stock civic lx sedan, auto, 3rd gear, those are not built to do that stock, scary almost

bike?
tach and speedo @ limits on an 84 VF1000F Intercepter, prolly about 145mph
1989 Yamaha FJ1200 (w/mods) 147mph (using a GPS w/top speed showing after ride.)
car?
swapping bike for car and being left behind driving a 74 firebird. speed approximately 125-130mph
road trip to Texas in our 03 W8 wagon, about 125 or so.
It's not always about top speed though is it? Acceleration is soooooo seductive. :D

1991 honda prelude SI 2.0 DOHC all stock besides a 30 dollar intake and a 50 dollar air tube hit 125 and was only at 5500RPM not bad for a stock lude if i do say so myself

I've hit 135 in my 97 lude w/ just cold air intake and short shifter adapter. I could definitley hit 150 in the future.

Pinned my speedo in my 88 2.0S at 220kmh (not miles), and was still acclelerating :D

very nice

i have an 87 lude si and i have hit 147. i have full aem cold air, full pacesetter cat-back with pacesetter header and rollin on some 94 gizzers. ( in lamens terms, 94 integra gsr wheels.) lol

humph.. i am wondering with my prelude.... if my math serves me right - i can get my lude up into the 150's... i got a 98 with a JDM H22A swap - H23 tranny (fifth gear and final drive is the same as the H22).... AEM short ram intake... AEM fuel rail... spoon mapped ECU with a 8500 rpm redline... but safely at 7800 rpm i will pass the USDM's redline at 147 mph... (6800 rpm)... should put me over 150... not gonna do it though - crap tires and a stock wing... no downforce....

WTF?? 147 Viper? That's impossible. Have you changed your gear ratios? The added power from your cold air intake and the exhaust aside, you shouldn't be able to get much over 120 - 125 with stock gearing. I've only been able to peg my stock 86 Si at 115! And that's in 5th nearing 5800 rpm roughly. I know not if it's an issue of power or a limiter.

Wut's up dude? I think you're a cool guy but I can't accept 147...sorry.

WTF?? 147 Viper? That's impossible.

No it's not, but not likely.

My top speed was 131 mph on I-70 while racing a VW Golf VR6.

For our year model, Yeah, I kinda think it is. The 2nd generations were gear too low to even go above 130, hell..I don't care how much you mod an A20A3, with stock gear ratios, top end will only vary slightly, which may hover in the upper 120's at best. You don't get longer in the tooth with improved power or engine efficiency.

Shit, maybe you do. Let's see..more power equals less rpm necessary to move the car, raising the top speed. Okay, so for the sake of argument, a cold air intake and exhaust adds 5 - 10 hp to the car, he's said he's putting out 120 to the wheels, stock is 110 - 115 for 2nd gen Si..hmm..nope, I can't give that more than 127 or so.

Just wait till I hop on my PS 2 and load up GT 3, then I'll see the difference in modding with stock gear ratios affect on top speed. :-p

It's not arguing, it's debating.;)

And NOTHING is imposible when it comes to automobiles.

125. Right on the redline. Engine has the power to go further, it's too low geared tho.
-92 si w/ 2 1/2 inch exhaust from the manifold.

130 redline in my 89si. was about @ 7000 rpms, i believe.

Custom cai...straight through muffler. OH and new black leather shift boot. :)

[QUOTE=Phunyguy]humph.. i am wondering with my prelude.... if my math serves me right - (6800 rpm)... should put me over 150...

you need horse power to do top end, not math

1984 Prelude dual carbureted. The marks go to 130 but I only took it to 100mph on the highway. I might be able to take it higher but I just don't wanna risk it. It's my baby. Her name is bridgette.

115 in 93 accord!!!! while racing a semi?????? :eek7: (pissed cuz i missed my exit on interstate) kinda windy doin 110 past him. fuckin governor stopped me at 115....i still had rpms to go.....very old thread guyz though

145 in my 92 prelude :lol2:

200 kmh on a Honda Hornet 600 on a highway in Italy, WITH NO FAIRING OR WIND PROTECTION!!!

i have hit 120 in my 99 civic ex many of times but anything after that i cant limited damn that sucks i know it can go more

130 on hiwhay in 92 lude w/ h22a swap/ chip/ intake. had plenty of room for more.

290 KMH (180MPH) down the A6 autobahn in Germany on a stock 1993 CBR1000F. Couldn't quite get the magic 300!
150MPH in my 95 Prelude VTEC with computer chip, exhaust, and suspension work.

131 in my 88 si. The car is bone stock, the speedo goes up to 140; but after 163,000 miles I didn't expect it to hit 125! I still had room to go (not redlining) but the engine didn't have the power to releasticlyt accelerate any more; and then there was a bit of traffic ahead so i gave up.

only 95 in my 95 si, i dont hav my license yet an my dad was in the car, wouldnt let me go any faster

in a honda 100mph and i didn't drive but the fastest i have ever gone was like 128mph in my dad's 1986 ford thunder bird turbo coupe...and i didn't drive.

123 at a little bit before redline in my 91 SI. everythings stock cept for the exhaust

i got 90 accord with h22a sway and i redline fourth at 140. never had the chance to keep going in fifth. mods are CAI, exhaust, AEM cam gears, DC SPORTS headers, MSD 6AL,

125mph-92' prelude S no mods, side by side with my friends' 99' civic Si with intake, headers, exhaust. Well, ok, me drafting off of him helped!!!!

132mph in my '95 Nissan 240sx se. Weird, 'cuz I thought it was supposed to have a governor at 115.

150MPH in my 95 Prelude VTEC with computer chip, exhaust, and suspension work.

4th Gen lude speedo's only go to 140. How do you know you were going 150.

[QUOTE=Phunyguy]humph.. i am wondering with my prelude.... if my math serves me right - (6800 rpm)... should put me over 150...

you need horse power to do top end, not math


well... i know i need horsepower - and believe me - it's there. but the good tires and downforce however is NOT there... :-P that's the only thing keeping me from going that fast.

135mph 5th gear in my 96 prelude h22a1... meter reads up to 140 .. but i still had lot til redline .. racing the 04 maxima dat started pulling at around 130 .. with 2 otehr heads in my car, i woulda kept going but the people in my car got scared and tol me to chill da fuk out .. hahahaahahahahahaha

you need a lot of help dude..

Try not to kill anyone, would ya?

got my 94 probe to 147 redlining on a little old two laned highway




kl-ze swap

170 kmph and damn proud of it

I had a 92 5 spd prelude si for 4 days. I took it back cause I saw too many girls driving them as well as the eagle talons, dodge lasers and Mitsubichi eclipse. I hought a truck. But I had to see how fast It would go so I took it out on a stretch of straight country road and wound it out. I got it up to 120 but we all know there's room for error. It was a nice car but just not me. A friend of mine had a v-tech that would hit 140 or so he claimed.

Well after spending an hour reading this thread my top speed isin't that big of a deal but I thought I should share my story do to the fact that my bone stock automatic prelude si impressed me. Well I was on the way to the body shop to get the fender painted, and I needed to see how this car did at a high speed. The car was wrecked and had some frame damage so I had to test it out to see how it handeled. Well I got it up to 123 mph like it was nothing proprably had some more left in her. Not sure what the rpms read it's an automatic so why waste my time looking at that( I can't stand automatics don't even know why I bought this car anyone want it?) Other then that I had my civic up to a 100mph haven't had a chance to cut her loose yet, got too much money invested in it I just don't want nothing to happen.

did around 127 to 130 in a 95 se redl lined it tho which i will never do again

I had my needle lil past the 140 mark in my 92 SI.. I got the Dc header, full 5Zigen exhaust, intake, lighten flywheel, nd a ported and polished head

i've done 125 in my '92 F22a. i'm sure she can do more tho...i wasnt redlining yet...just came to some traffic and didnt wanna die...

140, then saw cop and got off highway :p

:nono:
