120 @ 5k rpm's. I could have gone faster (I think), but I had to get off the freeway. I was suprised that my car still rides like butter at that speed...
Totally stock, by the way; if that matters at all.
ya i joined a year ago. i haven't really been active until a short while ago when i decided to begin to restore my 86 after my 88 took a shit. seems to me like 130 is near the top which i thought was weird but i do live out on a country highway with little to no police and a LONG straightaway after a 7% grade hill so i think that helps :DQuote:

how can you tell how much its going past 130 if you ever make it there...you are pretty much guessing, and speedos can be off by that fast.
a lot of cell phones have apps now that can calculate your exact speed by gpsQuote:

^ this is my tac, i did this summer of 2007 in montana, a while back someone copied my pic and claimed it
the fasetd i went so far is 100 in my coupe i was at like 4000 RPM and it wanted to go more but had to get off that exit. the car to my suprise was smooth as silk at that speed
130mph @ 4.5k in fifth in my first coupe.
120mph @ 4k in fifth in my second coupe.
110mph @ 3.75k in fifth in my third coupe.
I did 100mph and won't let me pass that with the issue I have on the car I wanna test what my has but that's the fastest I've gone
35 mph im scared to go fast.
^^ psh i hit 110 going to the V last month...
you are my heroQuote:
