0 - 200 KMPH

[strx7]

200ish 4afe levin,

a 4AFE AE101 has 115HP, it was either down a long hill or the speedo's inaccurate.

210 in a v8 commodore

speed cut on a 04/05 zx10r (felt like i was doing 100kph, at 100kph it felt like i could get off and walk)

[Boosted_162]

Fastest ive been is speed cut in the GT4...speedo shows around 200ish, but i suspect it is around 180k

Anyone know if theres anywhere around to do top speed tests LEGALLY? Like hiring out an airport of some sort? Id really like to know how fast the GT4 can go.

I hit the speed cut in mine. Can't do it on the back of puke though, too short.

I seriously doubt that any 4afe actually has 115hp with no modifications. And I never dyno'd my old bone stock one, but it was on a flat straight piece of road, i may have had a tail wind but my mainsail was down.

And of course the speedo was innacurate, they all are arent they? I just know it was 200ish because of the speed limiter.

Is it so difficult to belive? bluetop hits speed cut easily enough, and they're rated to what? 120hp or something? It's not like im saying i hit speedcut in a 2k powered starlet

[Mr Revhead]

speed cut in a kp60 2k starlet is 175

[4-AGE 4-LIFE]

Been in a GTR R34 the one featured in performance car cover car issue# 112 in april, only at 240 but i know it does 300+ easy

HKS T51R with a RB28 on the side haha only the kai version though rated at 850ps. with that huge wing on the back im surprised it doesnt fly

straight out top end speed is a simple thing really, its HP vs Drag co-efficient. I used the radar gun on the route P super spring in TGA for many years and i know what kinda HP cars had and the speeds they came thru at, and the 'straight' was longer than pukekohe's straight. On a VERY long piece of road I suppose its possible but it wouldn't get there in a hurry.

Lol, I remember that too,

and it wasn't speed cut it was valve bounce in 4th, and I think we had at least another 50rpm in it....

[thaphatty]

your right, it took a loong time, was doing a solid 160-170 before the straight which it cut on at the end....but it got there

[Pelo]

just on 200 in my MR2, going off the RSM which has been calibrated to a gps. Some back road way out in the sticks. Fastest I have been on the track is 185 at the last trackday. MR2s are scary at that speed, imagine more power!

[MasCam]

about 205 in a MkII escort. I say about because it was well off the clock and the speed was taken off the rev counter (which was also a bit past redline). It would be about right as it did 180 quite easy and it was a nice cold morning with a long straight slightly downhill sectrion of road.

Oh and it has a 90 degree bend at the end of it, that was the same day I learned what brake fade was

I was trying to keep up with what I later found out was the pace car for the Queenstown street race

[soopachargen]

as a passenger i've been to 6 oclock on the speedo of an ae85 racecar with the (monster)tacho showing 10500rpm 2/3 of the way down puke backstraight

[GTRgod]

Did 250something in my old R33 GTR (according to the pfc). Ran out of private road though... still had a fair bit of 5th to go - but who really knows

[CozmoNz]

pretty much asking for jail trying it anywhere, seeing cops in funny places these days

Come to oz , ive seen one cop in all the time ive been here, and there are so god damn many unmanned straights.

other night doing some stuipd speeds around the back roads where i live....

I love how my family thinks like me

[Mr Revhead]

HA! seriosuly, the cops in oz are a lot meaner and keener than the ones here...... and they have guns

unless your in the NT

Tell me about it, believe it or not though, they sit back down and behave after about 210. I did 240 in mine (turbo gze), it had a 240k speedo and tyres that were actually taller than stock so it was possibly more than 240k's. At that speed it sat real nice.

Done about 240 in the supra too (speedo hard up at zero), totally effortless really, just ran out of road. Gonna put taller tyres on the rear soon when its single'd and doing the 300k run

Nope, technicaly im still in brisbane area.

people drive the way they do all the time... cops probbaly know it too but meh, they all speed until they hit the motorway / highway / main road area then they still speed but not as much.

[saft]

fastest i have driven, 240-250kmhr
0-200kmhr in ~ 12 seconds

fastest i have been a passenger in

only reached 260 odd
0-200kmhr ~10 seconds

[bluemaumau]

yea but cozmo its no use having massive straights to burn up because your not even allowd BOV over there! (or do you just need a cert)?
