    how fast can you get your honda????

    i was just curious how fast everyone has gone in their hondas? i got mine up to 115mph today, i was racin some saturn that had a punk ass kid in it. i burned him. he thought he was tough gettin all close to me when im already goin like 90. but i love my car, on other cars once you go above 80 the wheel starts shakin. my accord doesnt shake at all at any speed, pretty sweet!!!

    I've hit 130 on the highway but that was after keeping my foot floored on the gas for a while. I couldn't tell you if it went any faster than that though.

    110 without even trying. Got a little shakes around that speed so I didnt want to push it. Im not a preformance queen so if any of you guys know what I can do to alleviate this problem, I would appreciate it. I love the speed and need to exceed.

    I've hit 125, but that was a while ago. I'm getting some suspension work done, and some new wheels and tires. Then I'll see.

" :flipa: heheh Kiddin my hunk of junk ive taken up to 109 only once..... when i lowered the rpms i havent been able to reach 100 anymore plus it gets the shakes at 50 and ive tried to take it over 109 with the new coil and sparkplugs and all but it takes long as hell to shift so i thought i was gonna strain the tranny so i gave up...

    I've pulled 105 before, the ride was smooth as hell after it passed 80 MPH. Felt like I was riding on air.

    I stopped at 100 same effect as Sabz5150 ie Smooth after 75 or 80.....I was trailing a Vette who was behind some joker going 50....the joker moved over, the vette took off and I took off behind him.....kept up until I reached my personal limit (100).... needless to say , he kept going. I agree, it felt like I was floating...may need some down force....but haven't had the Dinero or time to do any mods, still running stock.

    If you need down force you would have to put the wing on the front.

    or how about speed adjustable shocks and a front air dam (will have to then do the full body kit) The whole "less air under the vehicle routine." Why didn't I stick to RC modelling....it is so much cheaper.

    Well lowering the car would help but a body kit would probably just add air resistance.
