im not dumb enough to find the top end of my car around here cause the roads suck and theres no race tracks that are cheap to race on.........so i know this question has been asked,sorry im new here but what is the top speed for a non turbo 91 gxl rx-7? does anyone seriously know?

I don't know and I don't care to know because I don't think my car has enough downforce to keep it stuck on the road at such high speeds. I'm guessing maybe in the 140 mph range though...

If it's stock then 130 mph is about right.

I'd guess about 146. I can vouch that an '87 SE w/ a brand new motor topped out at 146...you may be a little slower though due to weight.

My 90 GXl would only top out at about 130ish, but that was about 15,000 miles before my engine blew.

Hmmm, wondering what an S5 turbo 2 would top out at?

Guys... GO GET THIS PROGRAM...



It's UNREAL and will tell you what your top speed is.



Ever wonder how much faster you would be with wider tires, more power or a reduction of weight. Maybe a few mods we all have done... This program will tell you.



Ever wondered what's the best way to launch your car... Slip the Clutch or dump it? And at what RPM... This is the program... It will do all of that



It's AWESOME.



Get it here:

I could have kept going too. But I had to slow down to take my exit. I ws only in forth there in that pic. But like Vosko said, "put it in fifth, and nothing..."
