    I want to extend this out to the community... Who here can achieve the highest Top Speed? Just a friendly battle, I am curious to see who here has the fastest vehicle! Preferably, the safest way possible, on a closed track or with a dyno. But if you must, like me, take it on the mean streets, then do so! Post proof if you can...honor system here folks!


    Panzer's EP3= 138 mph on Highway 83 in North Dakota, with current vehicle setup as outlined in my n00b post...lol

    Integra: 129 on I90 in IL
    CRX: never powered... thus, as fast as i pushed it
    240sx: 116 on I90 also. (at about 5.5k i think, so i can go faster as soon as i make my car more stable haha)

    today i hit 102 on the way to school. rt62 :rocks:

    i had my CRX speedo pegged and in fifth i was running about 5000 rpm. 120+ mph. i have no idea how fast that was but it was too fast for a CRX. really dumb. and i drove my friends 93 supra back from Chicago (Sound Performance) to Cape Girardeau. i raced some kind of sport bike (CBR i think)on I-55 and hit 150. he was still wasting me! lol! that car has 450 hp. but i got a little nervous when i saw the speedo!!! lol!! :)

    Wow...I like the Opel cars over there. The Calibra was cool. I really like the VW Corrado too. I liked how funny the Opel "gangs" were, thought they were fast with thier fart cans. Wish I had my EP3, I could have smoked a few.

    had a 97 civic witha jdm b17 swap that got up to 142, and it was an automatic. in the pink wheeled gsr i got up to 136, and in the 07 si i got up to 143. i didin't feel nervous or scared in any of them. all three cars feel stable even at top speeds. but i have ridden 170 in an 240 with an sr20 and an s15 front end. that car had a fully built top and bottom end and was not street legal, but he drove it on the street anyway.
