If that was your RSX, I have a hard time believing that. If I remember test numbers correctly from a while back, a 3rd Gen Integra LS could do ~ 201 km/h and a Prelude SR-V was good for ~ 220 km/h. Those speeds were gear limited, not governed if I recall correctly. I'm a bit surprised that an RSX could do 240km/h (and then some as you're suggesting).
Perhaps an over-optimisitic speedo?
OR... maybe that's the advantage of having a 6-speed (is your RSX a type-S)?
[The reason I had those specs off the top of my head is I used to own both a 96 LS and a 96 SR-V in the past]

sorry, mine was 225kph, not 245. I always get mixed up cause it's around 145mph.
btw, here's the formula for km/h so you can find out the theoretical top speed of your car, unles it's limited.
(RPM/Gear Ratio/FD) x 60 x (Wheel diameter in Km) x 3.14 = km/h
so for me at revlimiter, 5th gear, stock 14" rims...
(6800/.742/4.4) x 60 x .000585 x 3.14 = 229.6 :bigthumbup: |

in theory an RSX in 6th gear, without a rev limiter and the horsepower to reach redline would hit 268km/h. That's the end of 6th gear, but I doubt a stock RSX would have the mustard to accelerate that high.
(RPM/Gear Ratio/FD) x 60 x (Wheel diameter in Km) x 3.14 = km/h
so....
(7900/.738/4.388) x 60 x .000585 x 3.14 = 268 |

You only mentioned "unless its limited".
You forgot about the horsepower factor. Not all cars can DO redline in top gear, so automatically claming that as your top speed is false. If a given car doesn't have the power to overcome the aerodynamic drag at or near top speed, it won't go any faster no matter what the tac says. At that point the only thing you could do is a) make your car more aerodynamic (reducing the drag coefficient), or B) adding MORE power. |

My point is a 190hp Prelude topped out at about 220 km/h.
If an RSX Type-S with 200hp can do 240 km/h (or MORE), that has a lot more to do with the difference in gearing between the two cars than that meager 10hp difference. (and I doubt the RSX has a lower drag coef than the Lude).
I was only comparing the RSX to a 3rd gen Teg and a 4th gen Lude because those cars are "close enough" for this discussion, at least of the various cars I could think stats of off the top of my head. It wouldn't be relevant to compare an RSX with a completely different type of car. At least the integra/prelude/rsx are all within the same class, generally speaking. |

Of course it is the gearing, that hasen't been debated yet but I agree with you. Gearing is the best friend of a Honda owner.
Also the RSX tops of in 5th due to drag at 147mph(236 KM/H)
Now how accurate is the speedo then? I have no idea but I do know that on my speedo I hit 230km/h. |

The I-Vtec is only a small part of it. If your gears don't let you go above 230kph, you can beef up your engine to 2000HP, you won't go above 230kph. You'll get there a lot faster though. :)

Wow, who knew that this post would get so many people freaking out.....
All I know is that I was riding in a highly modified Supra when it broke 300km/h and I don't ever want to do that again. I'm surprised I didn't make a mess on his nice seats!
I have pics of the Tracker topping out the speedo though! Broke that needle off baby!
Kinda tough to see, but if you look close you can see the 140 and the needle buried way past it! Tach is only at 5000rpm in fifth too.....wonder how much faster I could have gone? 160? 162? LoL

well.. here's what I found after a quick check on the weeb.
Our family has two 98 Accords. The one I drive is an EX-V6 Coupe (red)
while the one my wife drives is an LX Sedan (white). Both exhibit the
same speedometer error of around 4.5% fast. That is, if the speedometer
reads 75 MPH, the actual speed is about 71.5 MPH. Does anybody know why
Honda builds this error into the system and does anybody know how to
correct the error? BTW, it seems the odometers are very accurate so the
error seems intentional.
seems a 4.5% error is in line with what MH is saying.. 230kph. |

260mph in my z32 coming into calmar
When my brother owned that car, I believe he wasn't able to get past 230km/h.
But it was smooth. 260kph is b.s like 260mph. |

I think that a lot of people here are quoting what they're seeing on their speedo as their actual top speed.
The 944 spedometer is notoriously inacurate at high speeds. Most 944 speedos read 295kph when the car is only actually moving at 267kph. That is the rev limiter in 5th.
I've only ever had the speedo swing up past 220kph before my good sense ;) tells me to smarten up. With my current mods, my car should theoretically hit the limiter in 5th... but I doubt I'll try that.
I think someone with a GPS should take Magnum up on his offer... :bigthumbup:

A bench racing thread that turns into a technical (kinda) thread. :bigthumbup:
:stupid: :D
Majority of the speedometers become more inaccurate as the speed of the car increases. I bet some of you are way out to lunch!
In my 1996 Teg GSR... fastest I went was about 210 kph... after that I didn't have the patience to wait another 10 min to get to 220 or what ever. Torque less engine!
In the Talon, fastest I went was at Race City, hitting 225 kph before I had to brake for #1 turn. But then again who knows… My speedometer can’t keep up with acceleration. For example when I cross the ¼ mile, my speedo shows only 160 kph. When I’m braking, then needle continues to go up for a short while. The actual speed is like about 180-190 kph
In the Rabbit.... Don’t trust it enough to go that fast and the speedo only goes to 160 kph :P |

| and was taken with a radar gun coming up to turn 3, it helps when your straights are 5 miles long and the corners are banked perfectly and are over 2 miles in to out |

245 in the stock teg, uphill
:huh: do you have a jet system in the car & how steep is the hill :unsure:
it was 225 not 245, and it was hardly uphill, but enough that it wasn't flat. |

:gay: I like it. :D
*no* Prelude hits 250kph on the stock gears. The fastest top speed recorded in road tests is 141MPH - 227kph...

There quite a few posted speeds here that are higher than the manufacturers or test drive top speeds I've seen quoted. The only way this is possible is if the gearing has been changed, or if the car is in free fall...
MH
Eric.. wanna come for a rip in the Jag? it's modified and the top speed is always about 10% below or over what it can really do anyways :P that goes for anyone who doesn't believe 300 kph |

GreenLude: where are you reporting the speed from? I agree you may be seeing 235 on the speedo, but that is probably not the actual speed of the car.
Half of the people here are talking about their top speed as seen on the spedometer and the other half are actually talking top speed.
Tell me what is under the hood of that 240Z that can rocket it to 300 KPH!
