You don't have to proove it. I've bounced the rev limiter a few weeks ago and I was slightly passed 125. I'm guessing you have an EX, manual.

The cutoff hits around 120 mph. You're not going to hit that 140 on the spedometer.


Some have claimed to go 150 on their Civic ..... but heheheh, I highly doubt it, not with the mods we have to work with.

Actually I own two civics, A 2001 lx sedan thats cuts off at 112-118 and I just bought a new 2004 ex sedan that reached 143 mph. Both of my vics are american specs. I guess I will have to show a pic of the speedo the next time I'm heading that way. I have buddy with a 2002 thats cuts out 137-141. But I also notice the rpms are different at certain speeds between the lx and the ex. I have no reason to lie to you guys. I couldn't believe it myself when it happened. Like I said in my previous message our vics do not have the same hp. Give or take 5-10 hp. The hp is based on an average as with all vehicles.

Show us your highest numbers though...



Anyways.
Just a few weeks ago I was comin back home from a friend's house and I notice this beemer going at the same speed as I was, beside me.

I try to ignore it, but when you're going 80 in a 65 zone just to get home, you're passing everyone and this other car just sticks to your right side out of nowhere you feel a bit strange.

Well, just for kicks, I started accelerating a bit. Started "racing" ... (I wouldn't call that racing cuz I don't dare race with a 2004 525i )

Going around 100 another BM steps to the plate. Forget about me dudes! I'm simply stock Honda! You're two BMW's... Go!
So they start racing down the highway. Bye! See you another day!

Anyways, I almost forgot about them when, going downhill, I got the damn governor. I was going 115... 116... 117? (Never gone that fast before!) Must've been the fact that I was going downhill! Damn physics!
I slow down to the legal speed, 65. I don't know why I did it, I just did it.

But it was all good. A mile and a half away from where I went down to 65mph, a cop... and the two beemers.

*Honk, honk* *Zoom... pass by...*
Heh...

Not a good storyteller, I know...

I heard in Germany you have civic wagons that come with a 1.8 Litre Vtec engine pushing 175 hp. The North American EX Coupe is only 127hp.

Dead stock 180 kph or ~ 111 mph.

Have you done something to your computer to get rid of the top speed limiter. I know I re-flashed my Z3 and now I can go as fast as the rpm's allow. (If I were dumb enough to go that fast!)

in all honestly I swear to god...lol...I've gone 205-210km/h with my ride...I was expecting a speed limiter....I had about 800-1000 rpms before redline, definitly not over 1000...but I got scared of the police...so I just let off the gas...I was really surprised to see my car was pretty stable at those speeds
