I've got a 85 si with boltons. I can hit 185/190 km/h any day of the week in 4th at 6500 rpm. the big problem is 5th. Fastest I can get it going on a flat these days is 205-210 depending on the wind and weight in the car (5500/6000rpm in 5th). Mind you I contribute these speeds to one thing. The car is very low to the ground.
my old 84 CRX dx was nuts, I had that car doing 7000 in 5th one night. The hill I was on must have been 5 miles long and I was doing 190 before I even started going down hill. the car was lowered almost 3.5 inches on 13inch rims. The Speedo registered 230 but she was way beyond that. I was way beyond freaked out!

Top speed anyone?

When Stefan was once told that he might be faster if not for his flamboyant sideways style, he replied "one is not always trying to make babies when having sex!"

Ya I know I've done some nutty things that i'm not proud of. Mind you All my runs were in the middle of the night on open highways with no one around. The car also seemed very stable except that one time (7000 in 5th).
