siren676 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I managed to get to 170k's down a slight hill at my mates house. Only have 4 gears so it was screaming Quote
LukeH Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 In my N/A the speedo claimed 122/3 mph, off the clcok down a hill with back wind. was a verry long private runway. Quote
starlet666 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 well i went past 180kmh pretty easy and have gone as far as 7500rpm in 5th.... and as my dials still read in KMH i dunno how fast it was going, but i know my dials are almost spot on cause i have had em tested due to a speeding fine i contested and won Quote
raffa_mk Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Done 110 in my n/a, doesn't feel safe like in the newer cars, don't think am going to do that again but the car loved it. The back box sounds very different at 100plus as sound like a jet engine plane taking off on a runway. Had a good run with a fiesta st Quote
Russleh Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 i used to run 195/45/15s and got to the limiter at about 155 defo wasnt going 170 lol. Quote
LukeSR Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Done 115 in the N/A, was off the clocks but sat nav was saying 115 Quote
scottyglanza Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 ive managed to get 165mph on my speedo will have to check wat that is on my tom tom when i get the chance i will aslo take a picture Quote
Driver Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Got a picture on my old phone of clocks at 145 (tomtom roughly 138ish aparently) and had 156/158ish on clocks , felt like it could of gone alot more to be honest but was running out of straight. Quote

Driver Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 am i the only one who has never taken their starlet over 100? lolCoward 1st thing i did is top speed run haha Quote
ollie ryan Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 no just dont see the need to find out how fast my car goes lolonly long road near me is a motorway and not thrashing it along that lol Quote
BigMan Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 got 100 out of the n/a ep85 in 5th at 5000rpm and still pulling. But didnt feel that safe and it was with 13 inch wheels aswell, although the gearbox in the ep85 aint built for speed or fuel saving, she drank alot that night Quote
The Toffinator Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Why you surprised by the N/A boys? real POWA lmao! Quote
Dickydan Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 speedo stopped at 120 on my bros gt but gps said 143 lol against 106 1.6 rallye ( on private land ) Quote
miib14 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 i got a 117mph when it was n/a with CAI and 17" alloys on (205/40/17)... but just would not go more than that lol...havent tried it with the turbo engine yet though... Quote
Spuddy Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I managed to get 165mph at a top speed event. At the event you had to go from a standing start and only had 1000 meters to get her up as high as you can. An extra bit of track woulda maxed the gear box.Hoping to get 175mph this year with the new upgrades. Quote
starlet666 Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 how do you calculate it after the 180 mark??? cause i have had mine to the limiter in 5th (9000rpm) and i cant figure it out cause my iphone gps is a shit piece Quote
