95 Honda Accord, for which I've gotten up to 170 Km/h (105ish mph). I would have taken it faster, but being 10 years old, the suspension is no longer up to the job...
Being an NZ New car (Hence not ex-JDM), the speedo goes up to 220 Kmh, I'd say the maximum speed'd be something like 200ish

So - what were the rpms? If your speedo was calibrated since then, just go at 1/2 the rpms and double the indicated speed.

On my 89 LeSabre my speedo only goes up to to 100MPH and I was still accelerating past where the needle stopped so I'd have to guess 105-110MPH.
I had a 1990 Olds 88 that the speedo only went up to 85. However, I was following my ex and her dad on a Harley. He was going a 130 at one point and I wasn't falling too far behind....but we are talking FWD v6 NA so I'm sure I was't going 130. Probably around the same 105-110 range.

You're all dumb. Don't go that fast on public roads in the US, unless you're in the middle of montana. Save it for a track.
That said I've done 110 in a rental station wagon. On a track.

in my car i did 100 once, it's a 92 accord and it could do more but i don't want to test the burgundy bitch, she might get pissed off at me.
about 130 in my moms accord v6 just to see how fast it was, i was stupid, it was before i got my speeding ticket and stopped speeding too much.

No I shifted to N because some punk in a new Shelby stang passed me like I was sitting still, didnt even see him sneak up on me... after he passed , I couldnt keep up. :grinno:
My passenger was in the back seat(safty issue:)) with the laptop/camera, he kept raising the limiter a little at a time.

Finding a track to play on with a nice long straight isn't all that easy, around here you have to be a member of scca to get time on most of the ovals.

i never believe anything you say about your car after looking through your CarDomain page.
i've never seen an ex-race car (of which i've seen many) that has the enitre stock enterior, no roll-cage, no race seats and no harnesses.
apart from that, the car in the magazine article is not your car, it has different wheels, a different spoiler, and the engine bay is different too.
and on top of that, visually there's nothing to suggest that your car makes the "530bhp" you claim it does. i'd be quite amazed if your car could break 150, let alone 180.

I'm on the fence on this one. 100+mph in second gear is kinda tough to believe. Whatcha got for gear ratios? I'm thinking second would have to be a bit tall to hit that speed. I get 80 out of the camaro, and that's pushing it hard.

according to the magazine article, the car has a 6-speed gearbox.
Getrag don't make a front transverse 6-speed gearbox for all-wheel-drive.
they only make a 5-speed for that spec, and it's rated to take 320Nm, or 236lb/ft. and if "your" 3000GT was making "530bhp" i think it would be making a little more than 236lb/ft.
it doesn't fit, does it?
