I did 95 in my mom's 07 Acura TL Type-S this summer wit my dad on a fairly empty highway coming back to Phoenix. Everyone else was going kinda fast too I guess. Funny thing is, I didn't even have my permit yet. I got it three weeks ago, eek!

I have hit 150 with a stock na ka with intake and 205/50/15's. That was very close to hitting the rev limiter in 5th. On a track of course.... Calculated using gear ratios, rpm, and tire size.

Around 165 km/h is the fastest I've gone in my Zenki. Not sure the exact conversion without converting it or looking at the spedometer, but I think that's around 100 mph.

Ironically I've gone faster in a Dodge Caravan though. Hit 180 km/h and it wouldn't really go any faster but it didn't have a limiter or anything. That was a while ago... Good times.

I hate the 117mph limiter on my s13. even my I/H/E SOHC can bang aganst it all day. Soon turbo and no limter coming.

My fricken 4 door sports car aka 3rd gen maxima Ive gone 135+. Gotta love the family sedan that can. And its a stock 5speed. No mods at all, yet.

i ran out of numbers on my s13 and in my 88 volvo wagon i went about 115, then the rear cam seal (i guess thats what you call it) popped. the volvo has more power than it knows what to with!

I hit 190 km/h earlier today (118 MPH), stock KA. Pretty sure that's where the speed limiter is at but I didn't notice. I slowed down before I hit it.

I did 148 in an Audi on the Autobahn, and 145 in a R35 GTR at Nashville super speedway (passenger). I also flew a Cesna at max speed, sooo 160?
