I was just thinking, you could potentially cheat your way by equiping smaller diameter wheels than what came with your car stock. Thus, the speed the speedo displaying is actually more than what you are going.
Or for shits and giggles, just jack up your front end and floor the gas pedal, then take a pic, walla! Look mommy 150mph in my stock d!!

I think I redline in my EM1 (Si) around 135 or so.....
I love how it shifts though..... For example im doing 60 in 5th, I can downshift all the way to 3rd and be JUST before Vtec, same thing at 80, go to 4th, right in vtec, 40 in second, you see where im going here...
I also found out a way to shave off a tenth or 2 off 0-60 and 1/4 mile. Shift a smidge before rev limiter.... (i know bad idea but, 0-60 you can do it in second if you shift at 8200 (rev limiter is 8300).

yes GSR tranny, & no Im not lying, that would just be ghey.... & the GSR tranny is not like you Si too. I was about 1000 from redline maybe less, shift light was about to come on. not sure how fast but it was fast, like i said... I ran out of numbers lolMySiIzFaster said:u have GSR gears??? B/c I think its OVER redline at 160+ man.......
Thats also impossible man....unless u changed the gears, top speed for a 00 si is 135 @ redline.BLK_B16A said:

ive gone 200kmh, or about 120mph in my si racing a turbo sohc, i was looking at the road and i looked down and saw the speedo and was like o s**t, cuz id never gone that fast before and i thought it would have taken longer to get there from 70, really didn't though. i doubt ill be going much faster than that
yessssssssssAndrey said:uh...but it's enough to kill urself
i do that a little different. if im going 80 i put it in third cuz 3rd tops out around 90-92ish, 4th gear around 110, 5th gear 135, i shift to the lowest possible gear when downshifing to be at max power the longest. so basically if im going 10mph or under the top speed of THAT GEAR, i would downshift to that gear, to be closest to max power the mostMySiIzFaster said:
