in germany arent very much streets with speed limits

[Saiyan[CHW]]

240Km/h with a 73' Camaro Z28.
But I wasn't driving the car, I'm 17 and the owner was my grandfather, this was about 2 years ago and I couldn't drive.. I reached that speed in the desert of Atacama, in my country, Chile.

The car was almost identical to this one, but the stripes were blue.


Sorry for my english, as your've read, I'm chilean.

1,8l - 350hp - 420nm isnt that bad or?

Not at all, but of course with boost. How much may I ask?

Looks like it weighs a good bit too.

[YanBooth]

122mph in a saab 95 wagon, but those days are over, nailed doin 92 in a 55

[[cTx]Philosophy]

Ive done about 155mph in my 91 stang, but my sister and cousin made me slow down, I was murdering a BMW on I-95

what? a 318i? lol

[fhpchris]

Holy cow that engine is huge! It's much bigger than my 5.7L V8

What necessitates a 1.8L motor to be so big?

over head cams....

Ticket tonight for 50/35, wow do I have bad luck

[wa77ss]

My Chevy Lumina can only go about 85mph before it starts shaking

what do you mean with boost ?
it has a turbocharger.

the whole car weights about 950kg

Yeah, how much boost?

[YanBooth]

boost is the pressure a turbo or a super charger adds to your intake, or perhaps its just how much pressure is in ya intake

100 about 10 mins ago in the ol 2001 subaru outback

[Soulburner]

Measured in pounds per square inch (PSI)

how many points or your license? thats nothing to me () 92/55 a few weeks ago

lol

[x3ro]

Mm well fasted I ever done was around 130/140km/h on a fully tuned 70CC moped with 28mm carb, other exhaust and stuff like that..

It was on a yamaha tzr (used to be 50cc and only go 60 km/h)

Well lets see. Im 17yrs old, had my licence for about 6months now. Speed about 15mph over everywhere I go. How long do you guys think it will be before I get my first ticket ?

How about a wreck ? I havent hit anything yet either

Not long at all, and prepare to have your already high insurance jacked through the roof. Seriously insurance is no laughing matter. I was paying more for my Grand Prix at 20 than I do for my Trans Am at 23...getting older has its advantages.

[trance565]

that wonderful age of 21 kicks ass, insurance at half price. thank you very much lol. anyways, if you got luck like me, it will be a WHILE, till you get your ticket, and you will probably get it while taking a lady friend home. wrecks ... just dun speed in the rain and you will be fine, so long as you have good driving coordination.

and like soul burner said, taht thing is facking HUGE for a 1.8. prolly bigger than my 4.6 ^^ (and yes, it IS mine now w00t)
and if it makes power anything like the honda 1.8 non vtec, it's prolly close to 15-20 lb of boost.

[jaguarking11]

to put my .02 in he is probably running 33+ psi on the turbine to develop 380hp. The Honda engines need to weld heads on the block to develop 400hp or so, not to mention completly replacing internals with forged parts.

The 1.8T probably revs @ 7500-800rpm at redline to make that kind of hp. And already has forged internals.

Not my kind of thing anyway. Give me an lt1 with forced induction and I would be a happy camper.

The fastest I have gone is on the Autobahn A8 Northwest from Stuttgart to Munich. The car was locked in at the 250 km/h or 155 mph electronic speed limit and just refused to go any faster. I was in a 997 Turbo Tiptronic S, obviously stock. The car seemed as though it easily had 50 more mph on tap. That was kind of fast enough lol Technically, the speed limit was 130 km/h, so I was speeding by about 75 mph.

[TaPaKaH]

I didn`t know that nowadays Porsches have topspeed limiters too ...
