I've got 140mph out of my totally stock UKDM EM2, going on a long gentle downhill stretch.
It gets to 120 easily then strugles the rest of the way

I think it's about as fast as the gearing allows as the needle was in the red just before the limiter usually kicks in

u're bumper melted??

and ppl...there is NO way a 5 spped EX can go 140 + without some serious engine work!!!! so stop the BSing!!!!

like i said in the beggining...the fastest i've been in 127ish (have done this many times)

...and was told that when staying in 4th gear (not 5th) ..u can get near 130ish....but not 140!



sorry...had to get it out..

Civic never wants to go over 90 without sounding very angry...M3 gets to about 175 before it feels that way

Dude... it an M3, it's suppose to go fast. These are civics, not inline 6s that where taken from the track. If you want to race though, I can drive my grandmothers M5. It's fun , to bad the dam tires cost so much
